Cryptographic system
Because all relevant security and privacy uneasy, encrypts the needs of commercial and consumer comfort.

It is in Windows In the API, in Java, you can name it. We see anywhere, there are reusable components to be securely embedded in the application, and replace it in hardware, this is the first process. "
XML / SOAP
XML and Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) is still new and must be proven, and some experts say that these technologies have huge potential. XML provides an insensitive data format, while SOAP will prove more easier than CORBA and DCOM because it uses HTTP as transport technology.

Microsoft builds its next-generation Windows and XML technology (Microsoft .NET initiative) development tools, IBM is a good medicine for the e-commerce, and even SUN declares that XML is related to Java.
"Everyone is looking for a way of working ability, so you can have a very different software without any knowledge," Dzubek said, "XML will be the next killer to mix the international business language. It will become and IP is like being popular. I heard that no one is not against it. "
