Welcome to the CDX Technologies December
2017 Newsletter
Best wishes for the New Year from the team at CDX
Technologies. In this issue we discuss new cloud-based tools for ZIP+4 Address Lookup and Demographics now available on our
website. We also issue a second reminder for the new encryption
standard for our servers and products going into effect in February
2018.

New Cloud-Based
ZIP+4 Lookup and Demographic Tools
You may be familiar with our free ZIP Code
Demographic Report. Just enter a ZIP Code to
see a report covering demographics, gender, race or general information
for that location. If you need data for many ZIP Codes you can
use our new bulk tool to download information provided in this report
in one step. Just upload a csv or Excel file to the site to start
and in a few seconds you will see a preview of the report. After
purchasing the report you will be able to download the complete results
in a csv file.
For a single address we offer a Free
Address Correction and ZIP+4 Lookup tool. If you
need an address list checked and ZIP+4 Codes appended you can use our Bulk
Correction tool. This works in a similar fashion to
the demographics tool and you can upload your data in Excel or csv
formats. Single or multiple column formats are supported.
This service is similar to the reports produced in our CDXStreamer
Excel add-in.
The tools are priced at $.01 per request (ZIP Code or
address) with a minimum charge of $9.95 and support up to 20,000
requests at one time. If you will be doing multiple reports you can use
your CDXStreamer account instead which offers significantly lower costs
per request. CDXStreamer accounts can now be used for either the
Excel Add-in or the new cloud-based tools.

Update Your PCs for TLS 1.2 Encryption Requirement
This is a second reminder that we will be eliminating
support of the older https encryption standard TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 on
our servers in February 2018. These older standards have
been identified as not being as secure as the latest standard TLS
1.2. With this change we have updated both CDXZipStream and
CDXStreamer to default to this protocol. Please download
and install the latest versions of our software before February 2018 to
be compatible with this change.
As discussed in prior newsletters at will also be ending
our support for the "classic" version of CDXZipStream on
January 1, 2018. Classic
users can upgrade to the latest version of CDXZipStream for the cost of
a data maintenance subscription in your online account. This
offer will only be available for a limited time.
