How does Basecamp Classic keep my communications safe?

Your connection to Basecamp is encrypted with 256-bit encryption. The connection uses TLS 1.0.

SSL is an acronym for “Secure Socket Layer”, a security protocol that provides communications privacy over the Internet. The protocol allows Basecamp to securely communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, or communications forgery. It is the same technology used by banks and e-commerce companies such as Amazon.com to keep your information safe and secure during transactions. In Basecamp’s case, SSL keeps your client communications absolutely secure (Basecamp’s normal password protection keeps your information private, but SSL keeps it private and secure). Find out more about SSL.

Everyone with a Basecamp account has encryption on all Basecamp connections.
