			All Melissa Data Cloud Services

	===Effective Date: ~~April~~ 21st, ~~2014~~===		===Effective Date: September 21st, 2015===

	In ~~an effort to improve our Cloud service infrastructure~~, ~~Melissa Data is adding new servers to~~ our ~~collection of server farms around the country~~. ~~For most of~~ our ~~clients, this will not have an effect since neither~~ the ~~services themselves nor~~ the ~~access URLs~~ will change. ~~However, if your organization uses a firewall to limit access by IP address, you will~~ have ~~to add the new IP addresses to your firewall white list (list~~ of ~~allowable IPs)~~ in ~~order to continue communicating with all of our servers~~.		In keeping with the best and latest security practices of the technology industry, we are updating our HTTPS certificate. Currently, our certificates are signed with the SHA-1 algorithm while the new certificates will be signed with the SHA-256 algorithm. Many leading technology companies are making this change as well. Microsoft and Google have announced deprecation of SHA-1 in 2016.

			To ensure uninterrupted access, please make sure your Operating Systems and client applications that use Melissa Data web services are capable of accepting HTTPS certificates with SHA-256. SHA-256 was first published in 2001 so most modern systems should have no trouble with the new certificate.

	~~The updated list of IP addresses can be found here:~~

			If you have any questions or comments, please contact our tech support team at tech@melissadata.com or 1-800-800-6245 x4.
	Please make sure all of our IP address ranges are allowed by your firewall before the April 21st deadline. We realize that changing firewall settings is not always a quick and easy process. However, in order to maintain the stability and reliability of our cloud services, these upgrades must be done.
