Dec 1, 2004QPID2 QPID’s Client Agent is a Java application that runs on any platform supporting Java which means just about anywhere. The Client Agent utilizes SSL-PKI encryption technology. It is completely configurable; and can support proxied access from within corporate networks. Qwest never stores the customer’s data outside Qwest’s internal intranet. Qwest utilizes proprietary secure data streaming technology to deliver the client’s data across the Qwest firewalls into the encrypted data stream for delivery to the client over the internet. Client Agent uses redundant verification to receipt and validate the data transport; guaranteeing delivery or notification of failure. QPID Client Agent
