Justification for the specific reference:
|
|
|
The Continua Design Guidelines uses/generates the IHE Technical Framework for use with Health Reporting Network (HRN) interface. This Profile specification provides a means to communicate claims about an authenticated principal (user, application, system...) in transactions that cross enterprise boundaries. To provide accountability in these cross-enterprise transactions there is a need to identify the requesting user in a way that enables the receiver to make access decisions and proper audit entries. The XUA Profile supports many solutions including enterprises that have chosen to have their own user directory with their own unique method of authenticating the users, and others that have chosen to use a third party to perform the authentication.
