“…Two well-known examples are CAS (Community Authorization Service) [19], the security architecture for Globus and VOMS (Virtual Organization Membership Service) [1,6], a similar solution to CAS developed in the EDG (European Data Grid) project. The two solutions differ with respect to the format of the capabilities and the granularity of requests made by clients issued with the capabilities.…”

Virtual Organizations (VO) temporarily aggregate resources of different domains to achieve a common goal. Web services are being positioned as the technological framework for achieving this aggregation in the context of cross-organizational business applications. Numerous architectures have been proposed for securing VOs, mostly for scientific research, such that they do not address all the requirements of business-oriented applications. This paper describes these additional requirements and proposes a novel architecture and approach to managing VO access control policies. Business users can focus on designing business processes, exposing web services and managing their VO partnerships, while the architecture supports and secures the web service interactions involved.

“…Our web services are able to authenticate Grid certificates via a trust manager, an authentication module which can be plugged into web service containers. We also have a fine grained authorization mechanism in place that can interpret certificate extensions provided by the Virtual Organization Membership Service, VOMS [2]. The advantage of such an approach is that our security infrastructure is backward compatible with the existing GSI implementations that simply ignore these extensions.…”
