Security threts to E-commerce.

All the security issues in the payment system through online system come in category of Security threats to E-commerce.
before we procede further we need to know following things. 

Electronic payment system

An e-payment system is a way of making transactions or paying for goods and services through an electronic medium, without the use of checks or cash. It’s also called an electronic payment system or online payment system

Payment Gateway

A payment gateway is an e-commerce service that processes credit card payments for online and traditional brick and mortar stores. Payment gateways facilitate these transactions by transferring key information between payment portals such as web-enabled mobile devices/websites and the front end processor/bank.

Payment gateways include PayPal, Google Pay(TEZ), Apple Pay, Ali Pay and Amazon Pay.

What is deffrence Among Private Network, Intranet, Extranet and, Internet?

Private network

the Internet addressing architecture, a private network is a network that uses private IP address space. Both, the IPv4 and the IPv6 specifications define private addressing ranges. These addresses are commonly used for local area networks in residential, office, and enterprise environments.

Intranet

An intranet is a private network accessible only to an organization's staff. Often, a wide range of information and services are available on an organization's internal intranet that are unavailable to the public, unlike the Internet

Extranet

An extranet is a controlled private network that allows access to partners, vendors and suppliers or an authorized set of customers – normally to a subset of the information accessible from an organization's intranet. An extranet is similar to a DMZ in that it provides access to needed services for authorized parties, without granting access to an organization's entire network. An extranet is a private network organization.

Historically the term was occasionally also used in the sense of two organizations sharing their internal networks over a VPN.

Internet

The Internet (contraction of interconnected network) is the global system of interconnected computer networks that use the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to link devices worldwide.

 

 Relation Between Private Network, intranet, Extranet and, Internet

 

 

what is firewall, VPN(virtual private network) and, Private network ?

FIREWALL: 

a firewall is a network security system that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules. A firewall typically establishes a barrier between a trusted internal network and untrusted external network, such as the Internet.

Firewalls are often categorized as either network firewalls or host-based firewalls. Network firewalls filter traffic between two or more networks and run on network hardware. Host-based firewalls run on host computers and control network traffic in and out of those machines.  

VPN(virtual private network):

 A virtual private network (VPN) extends a private network across a public network, and enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network. Applications running across a VPN may therefore benefit from the functionality, security, and management of the private network.

VPN technology was developed to allow remote users and branch offices to access corporate applications and resources. To ensure security, the private network connection is established using an encrypted layered tunneling protocol and VPN users use authentication methods, including passwords or certificates, to gain access to the VPN. In other applications, Internet users may secure their transactions with a VPN, to circumvent geo-restrictions and censorship, or to connect to proxy servers to protect personal identity and location to stay anonymous on the Internet. However, some Internet sites block access to known VPN technology to prevent the circumvention of their geo-restrictions, and many VPN providers have been developing strategies to get around these roadblock

Private network

the Internet addressing architecture, a private network is a network that uses private IP address space. Both, the IPv4 and the IPv6 specifications define private addressing ranges. These addresses are commonly used for local area networks in residential, office, and enterprise environments.

what is application security ? and it's types.

Application security:

It ensures the security of an application by taking some measures to protect the application from external threats. it is the use of software, hardware, and procedural methods to protect applications from external threats. security is becoming an increasingly important concern during the development as the application become more frequently accessible over the network and as result they become vulnerable to a wide verity of threats

Application security includes the following things 

1. knowing your threats 

2. securing the network host and network

3.encorporating security in the software development process

Issues of application security.

the important issues of application security include the following.

1.verification of users: 

an application needs to verify that only legitimate user or trying to use them. the identification of legitimate users by identifying their IP address

2. granting access to the user:

once a user is authenticated the application needs to determine if the identified user allowed to access the functionality requested by him. this is called authorization.

3. keeping the data confidential with encryption:

for business, transaction data from application system get exchange over the network. data stored by the application system need to be transmitted in encrypted form to prevent it from the potential attack.

4. Guaranteeing Data Integrity 

when the receivers get a message neither the sender nor the receiver can refuse it. That is the denial of authentication of the message. A digital signature is a common mechanism to guarantee data integrity.

5. Safeguarding application form common attack strategies 

6. Guarding the privacy of the application

Types of application security

1. email security 

Threats to email.

1. Junk file

Junk file is a very common term, that describes any orphaned file or it has no real value. Junk files are commonly referred among technologists ghost files or fantom files.

2. spam

Email spamming is an act of sending unsolicited bulk eMails, which one has not asked for. These are from commercial companies as an advertisement.

3. virus

Some emails may incorporate with files containing malicious scripts which may run on your computer and may lead to destroy or leak your important data.

4. Fishing

Email fishing is an activity of sending email to a user claiming to be a legitimate user of any enterprise. Its main purpose is to steal sensitive information such as password, username, etc.

Such e-mail contact with such websites Which are infected with viruses and ask for entering the details. This website looks like a legitimate enterprise.

5. Cleanup and archiving email

in order to have lightweight inbox its good to archive your inbox from time to time.
there are few steps to clean up and archive your inbox.
stapes:

1.  select the file tab on the mail banner.
2. select cleanup tools button on the account information screen.

4. select archive this folder and all subfolder options and then click on the folder you want to archive.
5. select the date from the archive items older than
6. click browse to 'create new.pst' file name and location. and click 'ok'

2. database security

databases are a cardinal component of any web-based application that enables websites to provide varying dynamic content. databases to are usually intended to be shared across the deferent application thus the database security is primarily concern with the secrecy of data. it ranges from protection from intentional unauthorized database user to unintentional database accesses by unauthorized entities

the general categories of secrecy related problems in database management systems are:

1. improper release of information from reading data that were intentionally accessed by an unauthorized user.
2. the improper modification of data.
3. denial of services(DOS) threats

threats to database security

1. data tempering
2. data theft
3. password related threats
4. falsification of user identification
5. unauthorized access to tables and columns
6. unauthorized access to data rows lack accountability
