Authorize.net - Secure 128 Bit Encryption Transaction Processing

Why doesn't your site have any of those reassuring 'Hacker Safe' seals?
The dirty secret about these seals us that they are strictly for sale. They are not truly impartial nor merit-based, and approval standards are low. Seal display program subscriptions are actively hawked to website owners by aggressive cold-calling salespeople. WebSites that do not pay these 'Hacker Safe-Seal' companies annual fees ranging between several hundred and thousands of dollars per year are not allowed to display these seals. Although some believe such seals may seem to carry some kind of significant meaning or weight, for the most part they are virtually meaningless. In webmaster circles, no website is ever truly 'hacker safe', and no security specialist other than an amateur would be so ignorant or presumptuous as to declare it. HotSauce.com's web site security is backed by Authorize.net's state of the art 128-bit transaction and server encryption and is constantly evolving with the most current security standards.

Our longstanding reputation in the hot sauce and fiery foods industry is spotless, backed by a long history of extraordinarily clean statistics for well over a decade. In our opinion it is unnecessary to pay any company for a useless seal, which provides a false sense of assurance only to those who are easily assured. We believe that our resources are far better spent on perfecting customer service and passing that savings on to our customers through building and constantly refining our product database and actual site security. - HotSauce.com.
