Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Safety measures such as using secure sockets layer (SSL) encryption, requiring strong passwords, and having a secure payment gateway help consumers feel secure when providing their credit card information over the Internet and protected against possible fraudulent activities. Authentication refers to verifying the identity of the user or the system, integrity refers to ensuring the accuracy and consistency of data, and nonrepudiation refers to preventing one party from denying that they executed a transaction. While these are also essential e-commerce security requirements, they do not directly address the concern of consumers feeling secure when making online purchases.
