Strategies for Secure and Authentic Networks

Infinidex takes a unique approach to securing both your contact data from unauthorized use and your group network from unauthorized access.

Bi-Partite Security

How valuable is your contact data?

How worried would you be if anyone could access your credit card numbers over the internet simply by guessing (or stealing) a password? More than one company claiming to assist in "social networking" today takes the same approach with information that can often be far more valuable: your database of personal contacts.

If you use one of these systems, anyone who guesses a single password can view the names, addresses, e-mail addresses, and phone numbers of potentially everyone you know, along with data regarding how well you know each person, and often, the title of your last e-mail exchange with each person.

This is hardly enterprise-worthy security: you might say that a service that claims to leverage the immense value of personal contact information should take a less cavalier attitude toward protecting it.

The Infinidex platform not only leverages the latent power of your personal Rolodex, but also recognizes the extreme sensitivity of the information it contains. Both our corporate-internal iContact and global Interdex systems protect your Rolodex from unauthorized access -- even if an individual gains access to the password controlling your account.

Our proprietary bi-partite searching algorithm makes it easy for you to get the most out of your personal contact network while ensuring that your Rolodex remains under your complete control at all times, accessible only from your own computer.

If you consider your Rolodex a valuable networking tool, our best-in-class security will give you the peace of mind you need to get the most out of this tool while protecting it from unauthorized access.

Dynamic Network Authentication (Interdex)

Networking groups, whether trade and alumni associations, or groups focused on specific social or political goals, have a long history as effective resources for helping people determine whom to talk to, and how to get in the door. Whether you are trying to close a blockbuster sale, find information about a prospective hire, or performing a high-level job search, these groups can make the difference. The Interdex networking platform ensures your group makes this difference every time.

While the Interdex embraces the degree-based "friend of a friend" networking that technological advances have made possible, the system begins with organizational based networking: relationship exchange between members of an association devoted to this purpose. The patent-pending dynamic authentication process that Infinidex uses to authorize group members ensures that only authorized users take advantage of your Interdex network.

Using our verification procedure, your Interdex contact exchange system will be dynamically generated and managed without the risk that users unaffiliated with your group will be able to join the group fraudulently, and without any onerous authorization requirement being passed along to your users. Further, your group's IT department will not need to be involved in setting up the community.
