Foil 63 Features of SET - II

From Remarks on Java and Internet Security Web Certificate CPS616 Enhancement -- Summer 1997 . by Geoffrey C. Fox


Merchant Authentication: This assures customer that merchant is legitimate and has the necessary relationship with a financial organization so that they can safely shop with merchant
  • Digital signatures and merchant certificates implement this
Interoperability: This means SET must not choose any one hardware or software platform and be implementable for world wide commerce
  • SET uses well defined protocols and formats compliant with best cryptographic practice. It can be implemented by any platform (as technical manual is 700 pages long, it is a non trivial investment to implement it!)
