Lower risk –than agreeing contracts for a large regional scheme 6 months before deployment.

15. www.nersc.org.uk UK Government Authentication Framework The Office of the e-Envoy (UK Govt) defines four authentication levels for government transactions. These levels are: –Level 0:Informal transactions –Level 1: Personal transactions –Level 2: Transactions with financial or statutory consequences –Level 3: Transactions with substantial financial, statutory or safety consequences. Additionally, level three authentications require strong non-repudiation, since repudiation of the transaction might result in substantial financial loss to the relying party or a third party.
