Abstract:
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) plays a major role in improving business prospects. EDI
usage is expected to increase in the immediate future. This high growth in a potentially paperless
environment presents a variety of security risks, such as disclosure of messages, tempering with
messages, etc. However, a major barrier to the organizational adoption and usage of EDI, is the
lack of knowledge and the need of security. This paper presents the findings of the survey which
has been conducted among logistics companies in Sri Lanka.
