Security ofGrid Brokering Services

• It is expected brokers will handle resource
  coordination for users
• Each Organization enforces its own access policy
• User needs to delegate rights to broker which
  may need to delegate to services
• QoS/QoP Negotiation and multi-level delegation

10
Propagation of Requesters Rights through Job
Scheduling and Submission Process
Virtualization complicates Least Privilege
Delegation of Rights
Dynamically limit the Delegated Rights more as
Job specifics become clear
Trust parties downstream to limit rights for
youor let them come back with job specifics
such that you can limit them
11
Dynamic Resource Management

• Compute job are run in newly created accounts
• Any account creds are created on the fly
• Dynamic account/sandbox creation
• X.509 identity registration procedure doesnt
  work
• Identity assertion not very useful
• Newly created key pair are the identity creds
• Only Host key is long-lived
• Only Host can be used to derive authz from
• Currently use proxy-certs to issue
  authz-assertions
• Host asserts that requester can be trusted by
  account
• Host asserts account can be trusted by
  requester
• Requester asserts account can work on behalf of
  requester

12
(Grid) Use Cases for Delegation of Rights

• Grid applications traverse admin boundaries
• Services work on behalf of others
• Authz-assertion chains are built dynamically
• Combination of multiple assertions decides
  decisions
• Need for the right policy language
• with industrial strength open source toolkit
• Policy engine should be present at all control
  points
• Embed engine in our Globus Toolkit
• Industry lags 2-3 years behind, but will face
  the exact, same requirements
