Abstract
In this paper we discuss the two security issues: non-repudiation and fairness in association with e-commerce applications. In particular, these issues are addressed in the context of electronic data exchange, which is one of the most commonly seen e-commerce applications. In detail, this paper gives a survey of the approaches to non-repudiation and fair electronic data exchange protocols. We additionally discuss the current technologies that propose solutions to these issues, and the emerging standards in the area of business data formats and protocols for the exchange of such data. Finally, we discuss the architecture layer at which to implement the protocols for non-repudiation and fair data exchange.
