Vsak dan se pri elektronskem poslovanju izmenjuje ogromno podatkov, ki so zelo pomembni za poslovanje podjetij in če pride do izgube teh podatkov, potem lahko pride do velikih posledic. Ravno zaradi tega razloga je zelo pomembno, da se vsa podjetja in tudi drugi uporabniki zavedajo nevarnosti in na kakšen način se lahko ubranijo pred krajo in zlorabo podatkov. Predvsem je pomembna varnost pri podjetjih z veliko številom zaposlenih, saj več kot je zaposlenih, več možnosti je za napake. Število napadov neprestano narašča, kajti vedno več ljudi uporablja internet in s tem elektronsko poslovanje. Računalniški kriminal se je znatno povečal tudi zato, ker se je današnja mlada generacija učila uporabe računalnikov že od malih nog in zato potrebujejo le nekaj znanja in iznajdljivosti, da izvedejo napad na žrtev. Podjetja in uporabniki uporabljajo razne varnostne mehanizme, ki jih namestijo na računalnike ali strežnike, katerih naloga je da zagotovijo varnost. Ker je varnost v elektronskem poslovanju zelo pomembna, se je razvilo mnogo različnih varnostnih mehanizmov, katerih naloga je ubraniti napade ter zavarovati zaupne in osebne informacije. Varnostni mehanizmi, ki ščitijo pred krajo in zlorabo podatkov so: digitalni podpis, digitalno potrdilo, kriptografija, protokol za varni prenos, požarni zid, protivirusni programi, itd. Zelo pomembno je tudi, da podjetja izvajajo varnostno politiko, izobražujejo svoje zaposlene in posodabljajo svoje varnostne mehanizme saj s tem zmanjšajo riziko in povečajo varnost podjetja.Every day, the e-commerce exchanges large amounts of data, which are very important for businesses and if there is a loss of data, than major consequences can occur.
