Abstract
On the Internet many electronic commerce applications can be used today, but most of them provide only weak security or even none whatsoever. A major cause of this problem is the variety of technologies used to create such applications. Most existing security architectures are not designed to work in different environments.
In this paper, we propose a security architecture for generic electronic commerce applications. This architecture is open enough to be able to cope with the different security and technology requirements of today’s electronic commerce applications and it is ready for tomorrow’s new systems.
