Seminar: website launch
Tobias Schiebeck, Meik Poschen and Martin Turner, University of Manchester "JISC OneVRE Project: Creating a Secure Distribution Cross-Portlet for Sharing Electronic Documents" Tuesday 12th April, 2pm-3pm Room 1.10, Kilburn Building The University of Manchester |
|
|
Website launch and demonstration: With Access Grid Technologies we can now join Portal based VREs. Using SARoNGS to authenticate users and provide VO attributes with X.509 proxy certificates to secure communication, this provides a Virtual Organization based access to Documents stored in the Venues. These documents can be securely shared; bit also expire in the shared Storage and then will be removed automatically. A key component is the joining of Portal environments using the lesser known Access Grid technologies in order to keep researchers within their familiar secure environment while reducing administration overheads. |
