Abstract

M-Commerce is emerging as ubiquitous technology among the existing wireless medium. It is technique of  making transaction using mobile phones. Users are highly dependable on mobile phone because of it’s anytime,  anywhere features. The transactions using mobile phones are increasing than desktop. Therefore, the  performance and adaptability of M-Commerce is highly dependable on security of transaction. Mobile phones  use different protocols for their display and programming while making the transaction. WAP, i-mode and J2ME  technologies are used for programming for making transaction. The XML file is used to send data during  transaction. The XML processor takes more time to encrypt which leads to breakdown the security during  transaction. This paper has defined the code to parse XML file which reduces it size so that data during  transaction would be sent with ease and fast. To enhance the security, XML file is encrypted before parsing. This  paper has the code for encryption and parsing of data during transaction. The code is written in XML and J2ME  as these technologies can easily run on multiple platform.
