CompuServe wants you to be safe on the Internet

Virtual Key provides secure and easy access to protected Internet sites -- sites that require visitors and members to identify themselves before accessing the content.

When you enter a site that requires identification, Virtual Key verifies that

  • you are an actual member of the service to which you are connected

  • your password is correct, and

  • the site you are connecting to is a protected site.

Your password is safe. When you are using Virtual Key, your account information is safe since your password is not transmitted over an unsafe channel. This means that unauthorized individuals will not be able to steal your password and fraudulently access your account

For additional security, you will also have the option to specify a watchword that only your computer will know and recognize.

The Virtual Key web-site is the place to visit for up-to-date information about Virtual Key. Get the latest version of the software, as well as support information and other helpful tips.
