Abstract

This chapter brings our case study one step further: making the VP’63 (VintagePort’63) Large-Scale Information System secure. Increased distribution of the infrastructure through the Internet, combined with remote access of company salespersons dictated this step in the project, in order to address concerns with privacy and integrity of the company’s information system. As selling on the Internet becomes attractive, plans are also made for setting-up an electronic commerce server, a major step for a company that did not even have a passive Web presence.
