Abstract

The purpose of the present essay is to discuss some technical and policy considerations of Internet security in the context of electronic government applications. The initial sections of the paper are oriented to describe the main security concerns, their relative importance in different categories of eGovernment applications, and some of the current security technologies. In the final sections, a preliminary assessment of the adequacy of the technologies to each group of applications is offered, highlighting some implications on the development of electronic government and policy.
