Is 4Fimo Secure?
4Fimo® created its security model with a starting point of
protecting members after unauthorized entity obtained user's
authentication information.
In case of unauthorized access to a member's account, this
access can only allow sending files.
Fetching data requires a secondary passcode, members set this
passcode on their 4Fimo desktop application. The desktop
application has extra identifications and can't be assumed by
another user even if someone has a user's username and password.
4Fimo® uses secure network connections (SSL) to serve all of its
content. All Communications are encrypted using industry
standards. 4Fimo® uses member's computer identification to
protect against any unauthorized actions or access attempts
using complex identifications stored on desktop and 4Fimo®
system.
In addition to username and password authentication, 4Fimo® does
not allow files communication with users desktop if desktop
identification fails.
4Fimo® servers and data storage are all encrypted by default and
hosted on Amazon Cloud. In addition, the software is created,
developed, managed and maintained in the United States and this
will always be the case.
Are my files saved anywhere?
This is not a storage or cloud drive system, the opposite.
4Fimo® only moves files in real-time. Files only exist during
transmission and in a temporary secure location for
60
minutes, before it is deleted, to allow members the time to
download when they pull files from remote computers, users may
also delete these files before the specific duration is
reached.

will result in automatic clearing of fetched files.
Sent files exist only during transmission and are not stored in
any location or pipe after a complete transmission. On system
errors, files in transmission are deleted instantly from 4Fimo®.
