Advanced Security Infrastructures for Grid Education
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the research conducted into advanced authorization infrastructures at the National e-Science Centre (NeSC) at the University of Glasgow and their application to support a teaching environment as part of the Dynamic Virtual Organisations in e-Science Education (DyVOSE) project. We outline the lessons learnt in teaching Grid computing and rolling out the associated security authorisation infrastructures, and describe our plans for a future, extended security infrastructure for dynamic establishment of inter-institutional virtual organisations (VO) in the education domain.

Nutzerdefinierte Restriktion delegierter Privilegien im Grid-Computing
This thesis analyses current Grid infrastructures regarding the implemented mechanisms for the delegation of user rights. The results of this analysis are subsequently employed to design an approach for the user-based restriction of delegated rights. Finally, a prototypical implementation of the approach based on a current Grid middleware package is presented. The Grid computing approach pursue...
متن کاملExperiences of Applying Advanced Grid Authorisation Infrastructures
The widespread acceptance and uptake of Grid technology can only be achieved if it can be ensured that the security mechanisms needed to support Grid based collaborations are at least as strong as local security mechanisms. The predominant way in which security is currently addressed in the Grid community is through Public Key Infrastructures (PKI) to support authentication. Whilst PKIs address...
متن کاملDynamic Privilege Management Infrastructures Utilising Secure Attribute Exchange
Technologies which implement dynamic privilege management infrastructures will be crucial to the secure sharing of resources on the Grid, especially as the number of resources and participating sites increases. The DyVOSE project has successfully deployed Grid services secured with the PERMIS authorisation software implementing a static Privilege Management Infrastructure (PMI) model. The secon...

Smart grid initiatives will produce a grid that is increasingly dependent on its cyber infrastructure in order to support the numerous power applications necessary to provide improved grid monitoring and control capabilities. However, recent findings documented in government reports and other literature, indicate the growing threat of cyber-based attacks in numbers and sophistication targeting ...
متن کاملUser Oriented Access to Secure Biomedical Resources through the Grid
The life science domain is typified by heterogeneous data sets that are evolving at an exponential rate. Numerous post-genomic databases and areas of postgenomic life science research have been established and are being actively explored. Whilst many of these databases are public and freely accessible, it is often the case that researchers have data that is not so freely available and access to...
