Figure 1 Security Issues
White Paper Organization
Information is organized in general technology topics, such as security background, essential security
information, and advanced security information. Additionally, each section contains links to both
introductory and advanced material, when applicable.

and manages the “eavesdropping risk” for a secure Web transaction.
