Your steps are perfect for most situations and hopefully the people looking for help with this issue will take the time to follow them. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/is-gravity-forms-secure-enough-for-personal-information#post-61495 Tue, 05 Jun 2012 15:48:06 +0000 Clifford 61495@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>1) get SSL for your wp-login and wp-admin<br /> 2) get SSL on your page where the form is displayed and any output is rendered (e.g. confirmation page if you output the form's data)<br /> 3) reference <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_save_field_value" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_save_field_value</a> and <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_get_input_value" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_get_input_value</a> to store the sensitive information fields in the database with encryption<br /> 4) don't send the secure fields in the email notification. Make people login to see the form submissions. From there, they can export, screen shot, whatever humans + computers can do...</p> <p>Is that what you're wanting to know how to do? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/is-gravity-forms-secure-enough-for-personal-information#post-57928 Mon, 07 May 2012 01:31:38 +0000 mxzrxp 57928@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>the forms are almost useless withotu security, but AI guess its what yo get for only 39$ </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/is-gravity-forms-secure-enough-for-personal-information#post-11117 Wed, 13 Oct 2010 14:48:48 +0000 Carl Hancock 11117@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Gravity Forms has no added security features. Your forms are only going to be as secure as your hosting, MySQL and WordPress site is. I would suggest making sure you take steps to harden your WordPress install and look into security related plugins to prevent unauthorized admin access, etc. But it doesn't currently do any data encryption of the form data. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/is-gravity-forms-secure-enough-for-personal-information#post-11051 Tue, 12 Oct 2010 15:00:47 +0000 Benjaminmh 11051@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am building a website for a friend who is a loan officer. He wants a solution for clients to fill out pre-qualification forms online. These forms would include personal information such as income, address, social security number etc etc. </p> <p>Is this a secure enough plug-in to be the solution for his needs? </p>
