A Comprehensive Privacy-Respecting Mechanism for Global E-Commerce
Date:
Complexity is inherent in end-to-end e-commerce mechanisms that are currently deployed in the real world. These mechanisms have to deal with various important and diversified aspects of sales and payment processes. While some aspects of e-commerce have been dealt with from a privacy point of view, other aspects have not been addressed, and therefore the complexity of the complete global e-commerce cycle has been ignored. In this talk, we look at the entire transaction flow and support procedures for e-commerce and payments, including all parties and processes within the e-commerce ecosystem. This analysis is intented to designing a comprehensive system by means of privacy-preserving cryptographic tools. Simultaneously, our efforts are on promoting a high flexible methodology by leveraging functionality of existing processes.
