With the emergence of digitalization, making the use of Internet almost for everything is not a new trend. The maximum use of it is in the E-commerce systems. Most of the customers are opting for Internet based banking, shopping, sales, purchase and many others. But with the numerous advantages and benefits that are delivered by the E- commerce systems, there comes the challenges as well. One of the biggest challenges in it is security. Implementing the adequate security measures, while making use of E- commerce is one of the crucial tasks. The main aim of this paper is to have an analyzation of the security in the Ecommerce systems. To achieve this, last 10 years literature survey has been done and year-wise publication of various attacks on E-commerce sites is illustrated. Along with this various security measures and challenges are also depicted. This paper will be beneficial to the researchers who are working in the domain of security of E-commerce systems.
