内容説明

One of the main inhibiting factors which is currently slowing up the achievement of the potential offered by ecommerce throughout most industrial and commercial sectors is the problem of trust and confidence - the virtual nature of the Internet makes traditional authentification and verification methods impossible. Therefore, in any ecommerce transaction, whether b2c or b2b, each party has to take it on trust that the other party is who they say they are. Therefore, applications and technology which create confidence in this ability are major enabling factors in the growth of ecommerce - whilst Internet security technologies are a part of this process in facilitating secure transactions and exchange of information, they do not address the issue of trust and identity - while the transaction may be safe and secure, there is still the question of verifying the identity of the parties involved.
