Abstract
A mechanism for ensuring secure e-commerce transactions, which includes the process of writing a limited server that can only perform those actions that are required. This server may optionally be a single function server, enabled to implement one or more commands only. Alternative actions are simply not coded into the program. In this way the server is intentionally limited, in that it is programmed to handle the limited set of commands that are relevant for the specific field in which it operates.
