Security and privacy have always been our major concerns. Especially while working over the Internet you must ensure that all data runs through secure channels and your privacy is protected to the maximum level.
TeamViewer has been certified by the
German "Bundesverband der
IT-Sachverständigen und Gutachter e.V."(
BISG e.V. , German Association of IT
appraisers and assessors) with the five star
quality seal.
The independent BISG testers evaluate
products of qualified companies for quality,
security and service values.
ISO 9001:2000 Quality Certification
TeamViewer GmbH is one of the very few
companies on the remote control market with
a certified quality management system
according to ISO 9001.
This is an additional verification that our
quality system meets internationally
accepted standards. (Download certificate)
Security-related inspection FIDUCIA IT AG
TeamViewer underwent a security-related
inspection by the German FIDUCIA IT AG (an
operator of data processing centers for around
800 German banks) and has been approved for
use at bank workstations.
Encryption
TeamViewer
includes full encryption, based on RSA
private-/public key exchange and AES (256 Bit) session
encoding. This technology is based on the
same standards as https/SSL and is
considered completely safe by today's
standards.
The key exchange also guarantees a full
client-to-client data protection. This means
that even our routing servers will not be
able to read the data stream.
Access Protection
In addition to the PartnerID TeamViewer
generates a session password that changes
with every start of the software to ensure
added prevention of unauthorized access to a
remote system.
Security relevant functions like file
transfer require additional, manual
confirmation of the remote partner.
Also it is not possible to control a
computer invisibly. For data protection
reasons the person sitting on the remote
computer has to be able to detect when
someone is accessing the machine.
Code Signature
All program files are secured using
VeriSign code signing technology. This
allows you to verify the origin of the
executables you received.
Even the
QuickSupport Custom Design tools are
dynamically signed during generation!
