This site has security measures in place to protect from the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under the control of MTH Mortgage. Everything that travels through cyberspace during an applicant's secured online session with MTH Mortgage becomes a list of unrecognizable numbers before entering the Internet. MTH Mortgage computers and the applicant's browser understand the mathematical formulas, called algorithms, that turn a secured online session into this scrambled numeric code and back again to meaningful information. A symbol of a key or lock will appear on the lower bar of the applicant's screen in Netscape-		or Microsoft's Internet Explorer. When the key is broken or the lock is open, the applicant is not in a secured session. Likewise, if the key is not broken or the lock is latched, then it is a secured session. This scrambling of information serves as the guardian of applicants' personal information. MTH Mortgage has carefully selected Thawte as the provider of our Secured Server ID or Digital Certificate. Thawte is the international leader in providing this technology. While MTH Mortgage and the applicant's computer can easily understand the scrambled numeric code, Thawte ensures that only these two computers have the one in a billion key to break the code.
