Abstract :
As enterprises conduct more and more of their business activities online, the need for security becomes more crucial. Organizations must implement protocols to address a variety of security-related tasks. An e-business would want to allow an easy access to its site but still provide data security and authentication for e-commerce transactions. For this level of need, one security protocol SSL, the secure sockets layer, has been widely implemented and is now the de facto standard for providing secure e-commerce.
