WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
The Internet enables individuals, as well as business and government, to handle
transactions with efficiencies unheard of previously. New opportunities and
competitive advances are made possible with the utilization of the increasingly ubiquitous
reach of the global Internet. However, a critical requirement for network
transaction is security. Encryption techniques and associated protocols play a
key role in the provision of security. The purpose of the Workshop is two fold:
| (i) (ii) |
to report on current advances in cryptographic techniques,
and to report on encryption and security protocols and standards as they are applied to e-commerce. |
