Abstract

Open Simple Secure Transaction (OpenSST) protocol aims to be a secure and transaction-oriented protocol for the unsecured network. OpenSST is a open source project, at present a simple prototype based on HTTP protocol has been implemented. In this paper, we give firstly an overview of openSST, and then we describe the basic architecture of this prototype, as well as make an analysis on its security. Then we introduce a security-enhancedmodel based on this prototype, which utilize the tamper-resistant nature of Smart Card. We will discuss several possible ways of integrating Smart Card into the OpenSST.
