Relationship between EMC and Striata

In this case, the EMC file contains an encrypted document, such as an invoice, letter, or billing advice.

EMC files are primarily used by banks and credit card companies to send high-volume system-generated statements to customers and are also used by businesses for electronic invoicing.

Encryption in EMC files

When creating EMC files, Striata's software incorporates a triple decryption algorithm to ensure data integrity and confidentiality.

EMC files are typically decrypted using a shared secret, such as the answer to a question or a password.

EMC files are typically mass emailed to customers at one time.

That said, the EMC file can be considered as an encrypted file. This means that it can only be opened by the program that created it.
