Abstract

Security and Interoperability has been considered as the main requirements for e/m-business services. Technologies such as XML-security and WS-security were acknowledged as the most appropriate solutions to meet these requirements and Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs), the most appropriate framework design. Anonymity has become lately an additional requirement for various e/m-business services (e.g. e/m-ordering, e/m-ticketing) enabling the execution of unlikable, untraceable and unobservable interactions and enhancing the privacy of these services This paper proposes a holistic SOA meeting the security, interoperability and anonymity requirements.
