  4. Certification Recommendations Update SOAP Version change from 1.1 to 1.2 No Version 1.1 implementations of IHE profiles – therefore no need for legacy reach-back Kerberos and IHE Enterprise User Authentication (EUA) eliminated from recommendation NIST SP 800-63-1 (draft) will disallow Kerberos for federal systems implemented in 2011 and beyond Intent was to “allow” Kerberos and EUA for 2011, but not for 2013-2015 Eliminated Kerberos and EUA from standards recommendation, and added assurance requirements derived from SP 800-63-1 “Level 2” requirements as certification criteria for 2013-2015 Allows (but does not require) Kerberos in 2011 Disallows Kerberos in 2013-2015 NIST SP 800-63-1 cited as implementation guidance
