Government agencies must follow standards to authenticate electronic transactions.
The General Services Administration has issued a draft policy for federal agencies to follow in authenticating electronic transactions by government, creating four levels of authentication assurance--minimal, low, substantial, and high.
The General Services Administration today released a draft e-Authentication policy that outlines four levels of assurance against which agencies must align all federal transactions and services by Sept. 15, 2005.
The General Services Administration will require agencies to adopt one of four assurance levels for electronic authorization for all e-government projects and major IT systems that conduct transactions by the end of fiscal 2004.
