Blackbaud NetCommunity Security

Our site, www.corpuscambridge.com, has a valid SSL certificate provided by GeoTrust Inc. This means that data exchanged between the website visitor’s web browser and the web server is encrypted, so that even if a third-party were to somehow intercept that data, they would be unable to decrypt and read it. The SSL certificate also allows the user to verify the website’s identity, as web browsers may detect and warn the website visitor if the web server responding to their browser does not appear to be the site they are requesting.

Personal details such as names and contact information are not stored on the Blackbaud NetCommunity database for the website but are stored on our Blackbaud Raiser’s Edge database at Corpus. When personal information is displayed on the site, this is pulled from our database using a secure connection with a valid SSL certificate. When this information is then transmitted to a user’s browser, it is encrypted by our website’s SSL certificate.

If you have any questions about the security of our site, please do not hesitate to contact development@corpus.cam.ac.uk
