Abstract:
Security is a critical factor in interoperability of
grid middleware. There is an opportunity to automate the
trust evaluation and accreditation process for grid certification
authorities to allow continuous evaluation of their policies and
practices. To assess the feasibility and usefulness of automatic
evaluation of trust in CAs a trust evaluation system has been
designed and a prototype implemented. The service will evaluate
a CA based on its published policies and observed practices with
respect to a set of rules based on the requirements from an
authentication profile. Development and testing are ongoing and
we hope to deploy a pilot system shortly.
