A DISCUSSION OF CURRENT AND POTENTIAL ISSUES RELATING INFORMATION SECURITY FOR INTERNET COMMUNICATIONS

Abstract

Information security is about protecting three things: the confidentiality, the integrity, and the availability of data. Securing Internet Commerce is probably the biggest challenge that information professionals have yet faced. Five years ago, Internet Commerce did not exist. Today it is attracting enormous financial interest. Investors are enthusiastically backing companies that promise to deliver the hardware and software that Internet Commerce requires. Companies are investing in purchases of hardware and software to permit them to engage in Internet Commerce.
