Importance of e-commerce security: The main contents of e-commerce security research involve e-commerce architecture, modern cryptography, digital signature technology, identity and information authentication technology, firewall technology, virtual private network, Web security protocol, secure e-mail system, virus prevention technology, network intrusion detection method, certificate management, public key infrastructure, digital watermarking technology, digital copyright protection technology, secure e-commerce payment mechanism, secure e-commerce transaction protocol and online e-commerce. The most important thing is to talk about these three major security issues.

First, protect network security:

Network security is to protect the security of communication process between network-side systems of all business parties.

2. Protecting application security: Protecting application security mainly refers to the security protection measures established for specific applications (such as Web servers and special software systems for online payment), which are independent of any other security protection measures of the network. Although some protection measures may be the substitution or overlap of network security services, such as the encryption of network payment and settlement packets by Web browsers and Web servers at application level, all of which are IP layer encryption, many applications have their own specific security requirements.

Three. Protecting system security: Protecting system security refers to security protection from the perspective of the overall e-commerce system or online payment system, which is interrelated with the network system hardware platform, operating system and various application software.
