Abstract
Abstract A system, method, and article of manufacture are provided for providing security management in a development architecture framework. Unauthorized attempts to access a network are detected and when an unauthorized attempt to access the network is detected, a user is notified. Access from the network is restricted to a separate wide area network. The identities of users of credit cards are verified during transactions carried out over the network. The content of electronic mail communicated over the network is also monitored so that the communication of the electronic mail over the network is prevent when the content thereof being deemed inappropriate. The electronic mail is also encrypted during the communication thereof over the network.
