摘要: 只要是商業交易,爭議的發生就無法避免。在實體商業世界中,商業行為的爭議解決機制已經存在;同樣地,在網路數位化社會中,電子化商務的有效運作,也必須依賴合適的制度來規範,稱為「不可否認服務(non-repudiation service)」,定義在國際標準組織(IS○)與國際電工協會(IEC)所制定的標準文件中[10, 11, 12, 13]。無論採取何種途徑解決,「證據」是這些服務能否有效發揮的關鍵所在;目前在相關的國際標準文件或學術文獻中,是以單一件證據為處理對象,主要是用於證明單一事件或動作曾經發生的資訊,然而單一事件的資訊大多是局部的事實陳述,無法清楚勾勒出一事件發生的因果關係,因為商業交易是由連續的活動所組成;連續的商業事件可以形成一個「價值移轉週期(value transfer cycle)」。以「價值移轉週期」作為解析的基礎,本文提出了電子商務環境中的「證據責任鏈」,加入更週延的證據概念,補強相關標準文件在證據處理上的不足。其次,我們以一個典型的線上信用卡付款系統-Secure Electronic Transaction (SET)為例,說明本文所提出的模式與概念在SET系統中如何運用,這個部份特別是證據責任鏈之產生及使用,並沒有被SET的原創者納入在其規範文件中[20]。本文的目的是為電子化交易環境提供一個更完善的證據處理機制,這是任何爭議解決機制的首要工作。我們希望本篇研究能為數位化的商業交易環境中的不可否認服務工作,提供一些學理上的支援。

Chain of Evidence in a Cycle of Value Transfers for Electronic Commerce


Abstract: Disputes are inevitable in business. Disputes in the real world have varied ways to resolve; in the virtual world there are a few types of non-repudiation service as defined in the ISO/IEC standards [10, 11, 12, 13]. Whatever actions are taken, evidence is the key to the successful conduct of these services. These above standards and some papers only define the concept of using a single piece of evidence that cannot describe the relation between cause and effect completely. In business, no activity is atomic and so evidence does not exist as an atomic piece but exists in a form of relevant pieces of evidence. In other words, we must consider a series of activities as formed a cycle of value transfers. Therefore, we introduce the chain-of-evidence concept to electronic commerce as a base for the refinement of the pertinent international standards. The chain of evidence can be analyzed and derived from the cyclic model of value .transfers. Moreover, we have conducted a case study on Secure Electronic Transaction (SET), a typical system designed for on-line credit card payment. In this case, we present the chain of evidence associated with the value transfer cycle that may not have been defined in the original SET specifications. The purpose of this paper provides a better evidence management mechanism that is the first step of whichever disputes settling way. As a result, we expect this research contribute to a theoretical support for disputes resolution in the practical world.
