1. UK eScience CA and JANET Certificate Service David Kelsey & Jens Jensen STFC-RAL EUGridPMA Poznan, 9 Sep 2014

2. UK eScience CA UK e-Science CA ticking along as usual currently about 700 distinct valid persons and 1700 distinct valid hosts – number of robots is probably still less than 10. New CP: version 2.0 – currently with Willy and Ursula for review Separated CP from all the rest, with a joint CP for all accredited UK e-Science. The basic idea is that the CPS specific to each CA will then be quite short. 09/09/2014EUGridPMA Sep 20142

3. JANET Certificate Service JANET are finalising talks/agreements with the chosen supplier – providing certificates to the UK The UK e-Science CA has investigated what is required to fully hand over issuance to JANET. A workplan which assumes that this can be done successfully – Plan for termination of the UK e-Science CA in early 2018 JANET CA to seek accreditation by Jan 2015 Lots of work still for JANET two major tasks are – all flavours of certificates can be issued – the UK Access Management Federation can comply with MICS requirements for identity. 09/09/2014EUGridPMA Sep 20143

4. JANET CS (2) Needs to be cost effective for GridPP – still the largest user of UK e-Science It is important to "manage the message", to ensure that people don't lose trust in the existing infrastructure UK e-Science CA will only terminate itself when it has successfully handed over everything and (nearly) everyone is happy(ish) JANET investigating certificate issuance via UK tools – CertWizard and CAportal – This would help provide continuity for users. However, DNs will change (unless they could be inherited but that seems dodgy). Maybe we can migrate the current CNs to new ones (from UKAMF) gracefully? 09/09/2014EUGridPMA Sep 20144
