Abstract-The application of human immunology in solving security problems in Grid Computing seems to be a thought-provoking research area. Grid involves large number of dynamic heterogeneous resources. Manually managing the security for such dynamic system is always fault prone. This paper presents the simple immune based model for self-protection (SIMS) of grid environment from various attacks like DoS, DDoS, Probing, etc. Like human body helps to identify and respond to harmful pathogens that it doesn't recognize as "self", in the same manner SIMS incorporates the immunological concepts and principles for safeguarding the grid from various security breaches.

“…The security of such a system is a crucial issue. Not only the data has to be secured but also the resources and calculations must be protected from inadequate access [2]. Furthermore; the dynamicity and multi-domain characteristics of grid environments have created access control related challenges [3].…”

Abstract-grid is a collection of distributed computing resources. These resources are available over a local or wide area network that appears to an end user or application as one large virtual computing system. The vision is to create virtual dynamic organizations through secure and coordinated resource-sharing among individuals and institutions. Access control to these resources is a problem difficult to manage, how to store and manage the security policies of such a system plays a key role. If these policies are not properly stored, the response time to access control requests will be dramatically increased. Grid Authorization Graph (GAG) was proposed to improve the authorization efficiency by eliminating the redundancy in checking security rules. This article proposes the Weighted Grid Authorization Graph (WGAG) as an enhancement to GAG which further improves the authorization efficiency by avoiding a lots of security rule checking. Finally, as proof of concept, we implement the WGAG simulator where simulations were done. The obtained results show that the proposed model can effectively reduce the complexity of security rule checking and gave better results than GAG.

SUMMARYThe systematic processes exactly define the development cycle and help the development team follow the same development strategies and techniques, thus allowing a continuous improvement in the quality of the developed products. Likewise, it is important that the development process used integrates security aspects from the first stages at the same level as other functional and non-functional requirements. Grid systems allow us to build very complex information systems with different and remarkable features (interoperability between multiple security domains, cross-domain authentication and authorization, dynamic, heterogeneous and limited mobile devices, etc). With the development of wireless technology and mobile devices, the Grid becomes the perfect candidate for letting mobile users make complex works that add new computational capacity to the Grid. A methodology of development for secure mobile Grid systems is being defined. One of the activities of this methodology is the requirements analysis which is based in reusable use cases. In this paper, we will present a UML-extension for security use cases and Grid use case which capture the behaviour of this kind of systems. A detailed description of all these new use cases defined in the UML extension is necessary, describing the stereotypes, tagged values, constraints and graphical notation. We show an example of how to apply and use this extension for building the diagram of use cases and incorporating common security aspects for this kind of systems. Also, we will see how the diagrams built can be reused in the construction of others diagrams saving time and effort in this task.
