This paper describes new security solutions for Grid middleware, specifically it faces the issues related to the management of users’ and servers’ credentials together with the storing and secure data transmission in Grid. Our work, built on Grid Security Infrastructure (GSI), provides new capabilities (i.e. smart card Grid access, and strong security file storage XML-based) to be used on top of different Grid middlewares, with a low level of changes. Currently, this work is implemented on gLite and accomplishes the access to Grid resources in a uniform and transparent way. These improvements enable the Grid computing toward the new processing model known as business services.

Abstract
This paper describes new security solutions for Grid middleware, specifically it faces the issues related to the management of users’ and servers’ credentials together with the storing and secure data transmission in Grid. Our work, built on Grid Security Infrastructure (GSI), provides new capabilities (i.e. smart card Grid access, and strong security file storage XML-based) to be used on top of different Grid middlewares, with a low level of changes. Currently, this work is implemented on gLite and accomplishes the access to Grid resources in a uniform and transparent way. These improvements enable the Grid computing toward the new processing model known as business services.Pubblicazioni consigliate
