Abstract
This talk will survey user management and access control mechanisms
within the Globus and Condor toolkits and attempt to highlight the
strong points, the weak points, and how new or emerging standards,
such SAML, XACML, and WS-*, could be used to bolster existing, or
create more robust, mechanisms. Issues identified here must be addressed
before Grids can become utilities for general usage.
Topic List
- User authentication
- User identity attribute collection and passing
- User identity federation
- Usage of federated authentication state and identity
attributes for service authorization
Target Audience
Individuals:
- Grid toolkit developers who may want information
on how identity management and access control are done in other
areas
- Deployers of Grid systems interested in user management
and access control issues
- Grid users
