Credit Manager Data Flow

Company File Encryption
The Credit Manager Company File is encrypted using AES-256 encryption and stored on your local machine or network. Our Metro 2® software solution complies with data storage security regulations.

User Accounts
Credit Manager offers user accounts for accessing the software.
User Accounts allow you to define each user with a login and password before they can access the Licensed Software. With the Pro version of Credit Manager, one User Account (Admin) is available, while the Elite version can have unlimited User Accounts defined per Software License. User Accounts help to secure the software and limit access to only those who have a login and password.

Admin accounts have complete access to all the software options. The Admin User can define which software options the other User Accounts are allowed to access. Example, create/open/purge a Company File, backup/restore, upload, import and so on.

This helps with securing who is using the software and the options which are available to the user.

Log Files
Credit Manager offers a log file system to keep track of activity in the software such as upload history, import history, Metro 2® compliance management and more. For Example: When you report to the credit bureaus, a log file is created containing the history of upload activity.

Audit History
Each consumer record in the Credit Manager has an Audit History. The Audit History contains a history/log of edits made to the consumer record.

For example: editing the accounts 'current balance' field will generate an entry into the records Audit History.

SFTP / HTTPS Secure File Transfer
Credit Manager, Metro 2® format files are uploaded securely through SFTP or the standard HTTPS web portals provided by the Credit Bureaus.
