SECURE MESSAGING SYSTEM

摘要

A method for secure data transactions over a computer network is described. In one embodiment, the act of generating at the first party a document, which authorizes the data transaction to proceed is performed. In one embodiment, the document content is signed using a computer network with audit-level encryption digital certificates. In one embodiment, a signed digital message (and/or document) is sent from the first party to the network transfer system electronically, and can be authenticated via the ICN certificate authorities to demonstrate the authorities of the signer of the signed document in assent to the transaction. In one embodiment, a copy of the signed digital document can be stored in a database associated with the transfer network system. In one embodiment, the system uses rules (patterns) of exchange agreed upon within and between organizations. These rules enable the exchange to progress smoothly and drive systematically the attention of participants to demands and problems etc. as a given transaction goes along.
