Due to the exponentially increasing threat of cyber attacks, many e-commerce organizations around the world have begun to recognize the importance of information security. When considering the importance of security in e-commerce, we need to train e-commerce security experts who can help ensure the reliable deployment of e-commerce. The purpose of this research is to design and evaluate an e-commerce security curriculum useful in training e-commerce security experts. In this paper, we use a phase of the Delphi method and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. To validate our results, we divide the respondents into two groups and compare the survey results.
Key Words: e-commerce security education, curriculum design, AHP method, Delphi method
