With credit card breaches in the news and a renewed focus on privacy of personal information, BAS is pleased to confirm that the first five digits of an employee’s Social Security Number is masked when an employee logs into his or her own account. This security feature discourages unintended viewers from observing an individual’s full Social Security number.
At any time, an employee may confirm the complete Social Security Number by clicking the “reveal” link on the screen. The reveal link will initiate a pop-up window in which the employee will be prompted to enter their complete SSN. If the SSN they enter matches the SSN in MyEnroll.com, they will be presented with a message confirming the match. If the employee’s entry does not match the Social Security Number stored in MyEnroll.com, MyEnroll.com confirms a mismatch. This confirmation process assures that if an employee leaves his or her computer unattended with Employee Home Page displayed and a passer by attempts to reveal the masked SSN, that there would be no way for that passer by to see the full SSN.
The Social Security Number Reveal window times out in two minutes, automatically (this will not affect the rest of the user’s session in MyEnroll.com).
