EU IST-FP6 Concertation, 17 th September Contents EGEE security plans Identified problems/challenges

EU IST-FP6 Concertation, 17 th September EGEE security plans (1/2) Security Requirements - Horizontal activity, managed through central groups  Lesson learned: reused and updated requirements from earlier projects  Collecting (continuous process) the requirements from the activities - Middleware, Sites, Applications.  Share the requirements with other grid activities and get feedback, e.g. in the US  Prioritization set in the security groups, with representatives from all involved activities.  Defining what security modules to deliver when. Product - leverage on the biomed requirements  To keep the industry focus we put extra effort, from day one, in supporting biomed applications, being a security demanding application. Middleware - Security is not an add-on, has to be there from start  From start, and ‘all over the place’: All JRA3 members are also part of the Middleware development.  Active in the architecture and design of the middleware Middleware, JRA1 Security, JRA3

EU IST-FP6 Concertation, 17 th September EGEE security plans (2/2) Security Architecture - Modular, Agnostic, Standard, Interoperable  Modular – add new modules later  Agnostic – modules will evolve  Standard – start with transport-level security but intend to move to WS-Security when it matures  Interoperable - at least for AuthN & AuthZ  Applied to Web-services hosted in containers and applications (Apache Axis & Tomcat) as additional modules Worldwide solution - Involve non-European partners at an early stage  Bob Cowles (SLAC, OSG) and Dane Skow (Fermilab, OSG) members of the MWSG  Establish contact through hands-on activities. Example: EGEE and OSG to define common operational security procedures, by contributing to/working out common documents, mostly by reusing OSG work already in place.
