Adaptive secure software architecture for electronic commerce

摘要

As Internet business exponentially grows, a need for the high security level categories that identify a group of connections or an individual transaction is manifest. Recently the development of efficient and secure software architecture has been in high demand. In this paper, we propose adaptive secure software architecture to support secure e-commerce transactions. Our adaptive secure software architecture dynamically adapts security classes based on the nature and sensitivity of interactions among participants. Four security classes incorporate security levels of cryptographic techniques with a degree of information sensitivity. We have done extensive experiments on the performance of the proposed adaptive secure software architecture. Experimental results show that our adaptive secure software architecture provides e-commerce transactions with high-quality security services.
