EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) has been used in many large companies to automate B2B transactions. Because of the high implementation costs of EDI system, many small companies cannot participate in EDI communications. But with the technologies available today, B2B messaging on the Internet (sometimes termed Internet EDI) is feasible and is a good opportunity for smaller companies to do B2B communications. XML is expected to play an important role in this aspect because of its openness, simplicity and internationalization.


As one of the major concerns for B2B messaging on the Internet is security. Making use of the latest PKI technology, InfoTrus's Secure XML can secure XML data during transmission. Using cryptographic protocols such as SSL, S/MIME and PKCS7, all XML data are encrypted before transportation. The Internet has become as secure as other networks such as VANs and intranets. Also, using the latest W3C/IETF XML signature standard and digital certificate, Secure XML adds digital signature to XML documents , which can be verified by the receiver to provide non-repudiation of origin. In addition, Secure XML can be extended to support WML to provide secured wireless transactions.
