"Although Internet security breaches have gotten a lot of press, most vendors and analysts argue that transactions are actually less dangerous in cyberspace than in the physical world.

That's because a great deal of credit card fraud is caused by retail sales employees who handle card numbers. E-commerce systems remove temptation by encrypting the numbers on a company's servers. For merchants, e-commerce is actually safer than opening a store that could be looted, burned, or flooded. The difficulty is in getting customers to believe that e-commerce is safe for them.

Consumers don't really believe it yet, but experts say e-commerce transactions are safer than ordinary credit card purchases. Every time you pay with a credit card at a store, in a restaurant, or over an 800 number--and every time you throw away a credit card receipt--you make yourself vulnerable to fraud."

Fronting Grafton Street are three gallery spaces, one an exhibiting gallery, another dedicated to fine art prints and the third showing a wide variety of work from the Network’s stockroom These spaces are run by the Australian Art Network who have been publishing, promoting and exhibiting works by indigenous artists nationally and internationally for the past 15 years.

 To the rear of the complex is the NEWflames Foundation’s workshop space. Here, this not for profit organisation nurtures artistic drive through studio residencies and professional development opportunities. for Australian indigenous artists.

Another indigenous arts industry pioneer, Theo Tremblay has relocated his fine art printmaking studio into Canopy Artspace. Here artists can work on linocuts, etchings, lithographs, screenprints, mono prints and papermaking with this master printmaker.

Arts Nexus, a development body for art and culture in Tropical North Queensland, and the Cairns Regional Council’s Creative Partnership Unit also share space in the complex.
