INFSO-RI Enabling Grids for E-sciencE JRA3 2 nd EU Review Input David Groep NIKHEF

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE INFSO-RI JRA3 EU Review Input DavidG December 7 th EUGridPMA Authentication Federation Federation consists of many independent CAs –Common minimum requirements –Defined and ‘strong’ acceptance process –“reasonable” trust level, as required by relying parties –no ‘hierarchical top’ to make formal guarantees Membership –34 Identity providers (national and regional CAs) –6 Relying parties (large projects like EGEE, DEISA, SEE-GRID, OSG, LCG) and TERENA CA 1 CA 2 CA 3 CA n charter guidelines acceptance process acceptance process relying party 1 relying party n

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE INFSO-RI JRA3 EU Review Input DavidG December 7 th The EUGridPMA Virtually complete coverage of Europe, accreditation for EGEE, DEISA, SEE-GRID, LCG, OSG,.. Actively fostered and by supported by JRA3 Green:countries and regions covered by a national CA in the EUGridPMA

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE INFSO-RI JRA3 EU Review Input DavidG December 7 th Policy Evaluation Framework Policy evaluation based on Authentication Profiles –Authorities demonstrate compliance with these guidelines –Peer-review process within the federation to (re-) evaluate members both on entry and periodically –Codified in the Accreditation Guidelines policy since 2004 –Demonstrated in practice in ~10 new accreditations since Benefits –Reduces effort on the relying parties  single document to review and assess, applicable to all providers –Reduce cost on the identity providers  no audit statement needed by certified accountants  but participation in the federation does come with a price Ultimate decision always remains with the administrative owners (relying parties)

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE INFSO-RI JRA3 EU Review Input DavidG December 7 th Authentication Profiles Three main Authentication Profiles (the requirement sets) common not only for Europe, but also for the Asia Pacific & Americas Certification authorities with secured infrastructure –Highly trusted by all current grid projects –Leverages national structures effectively Short-lived credential services –Leverage existing local site mechanisms –New profile to be pioneered in the Americas, but far from stable and has not yet been exposed to many relying parties Experimental Service –Jumpstart new national and regional CAs via a pilot service –Successful model in the Asia Pacific region

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE INFSO-RI JRA3 EU Review Input DavidG December 7 th IGTF Structure Each PMA can accredited authorities according to any of the valid authentication profiles (classic secured PKI, short-lived credential services, experimental) Common standards Coordinated naming (every name within the IGTF is unique) Common accreditation process Three chairs collectively represent the IGTF (formal IGTF chair rotates yearly) First IGTF Chair is from Europe …

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE INFSO-RI JRA3 EU Review Input DavidG December 7 th IGTF, GGF and TACAR The IGTF, GGF (the CAOPS-WG) and TERENA work together to establish the global trust fabric
