With this new solution CSC will be able to provide SharePoint based reporting services to all participants in the Finish SAML 2.0 federation, the Haka federation. Also, Safewhere*protect for SharePoint, allows CSC to partition content and functionality based on combinations of attributes, such as organization and role. 

The new infrastructure supporting Danish national X.509 infrastructure, Digital Signatur, along with Danish bank authentication, NetID, went live with the new health care web site today. The solution will also support next generation national ID-infrastructure, branded NemID, as of the NemID launch on July 1, 2010.

As a result of this partnership all current and future customers of Safewhere*identify will be able to sign in their users using NemID in addition to the range of other available options.

In addition to the seamless and immediate availability of NemID login to Safewhere customers and their users, Safewhere consultants are trained by DanID to assist in the implementation of NemID for signing - legally binding - documents and transactions.
