Pita Jarupunphol, Wipawan Buathong · 2007
The growth of e-commerce clearly relies upon a strong support from consumers and merchants. Since security of sensitive information is an issue of concern to e-commerce consumers, it is vital to have security criteria and mechanisms in order to address this issue. Recently, there have been several secure e-commerce applications invented to fulfil e-commerce end-user security requirements. Many of these applications, however, have not really taken on because they fail to meet e-commerce end-user implementation requirements. For successful implementation of secure e-commerce applications, there is a need of coordination between e-commerce application developers and e-commerce end-users. Currently, it can be seen that this requirement has not yet been achieved. The more security requirement is fulfilled, the less systems meet implementation requirements. This paper considers current situation and the future of e-commerce security.
