Authentication

Authentication of organizations withing the HiGHmed DSF is handled by the use of X.509 client and server certificates. Currently only the certificate authority run by DFN (Deutsches Forschungsnetz) is supported. All participating organizations are entered in a distributed and synchronized white-list of valid organizations and certificates.

A webserver certificate is needed to run the FHIR endpoint and a 802.1X client certificate is used to authenticate against other organizations endpoints. For available certificate profiles see DFN-PKI-Zertifikatprofile_Global.pdf
