Tools for Grid/Campus Integration: Grid. Shib and My. Proxy Internet 2 Advanced Camp July 1, 2005 Von Welch vwelch@ncsa. uiuc. edu July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP

Outline • Grid. Shib – Overview of Shibboleth and Globus – Our Motivation and Use Cases – Integration Approach – Status • My. Proxy – Overview – Local Authn Support July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 2

Shibboleth • http: //shibboleth. internet 2. edu/ • Internet 2 project • Allows for inter-institutional sharing of web resources (via browsers) – Provides attributes for authorization between institutions • Allows for pseudonymity via temporary, meaningless identifiers called ‘Handles’ • Standards-based (SAML) • Being extended to non-web resources July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 3

Shibboleth • Identity Provider composed of single sign-on (SSO) and attribute authority (AA) services • SSO: authenticates user locally and issues authentication assertion with Handle – Assertion is short-lived bearer assertion – Handle is also short-lived and non-identifying – Handle is registered with AA • Attribute Authority responds to queries regarding handle July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 4

Shibboleth • Service Provider composed of Assertion Consumer and Attribute Requestor • Assertion Consumer parses authentication assertion • Attribute Requestor: request attributes from AA – Attributes used for authorization • Where Are You From (WAYF) service determines user’s Identity Provider July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 5

Shibboleth (Simplified) Shibboleth Id. P LDAP (e. g. ) AA SAML Attributes Handle SSO Shibboleth SP AR ACS Handle July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 6

Globus Toolkit • http: //www. globus. org • Toolkit for Grid computing – Job submission, data movement, data management, resource management • Based on Web Services and WSRF • Security based on X. 509 identity- and proxy -certificates – Maybe from conventional or on-line CAs • Some initial attribute-based authorization July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 7

Motivation • Many Grid VOs are focused on science or business other than IT support – Don’t have expertise or resources to run security services • Allow for leveraging of Shibboleth code and deployments run by campuses July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 8

Use Cases • Project leveraging campus attributes – Simplest case • Project-operated Shib service – Project operates own service, conceptually easy, but not ideal • Campus-operated, project-administered Shib – Ideal mix, but need mechanisms for provisioning of attribute administration July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 9

Integration Approach • Conceptually, replace Shibboleth’s handle-based authentication with X 509 – Provides stronger security for non-web browser apps – Works with existing PKI install base • To allow leveraging of Shibboleth install base, require as few changes to Shibboleth AA as possible July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 10

Integration Areas • • • Assertion Transmission Attribute Authority Discovery Distribute Attribute Administration User Registration Pseudonymous Interaction Authorization July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 12

Assertion Transmission • How to get SAML assertions from AA into Globus? • Initially: Pull mode with Globus acting as a Shibboleth Attribute Requestor • Will explore Pull modes to help with privacy and role combination • Implement Grid Name Mapper to map X 509 DNs to local identities used to obtain attributes July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 13

Attribute Authority Discovery • No interactive WAYF service in the Grid • Place identifier of Identity Provider in cert – Either in long-term EEC or short-term Proxy Cert • Will explore pushing attributes – Avoids the problem – Might also address combined attributes from multiple AAs July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 14

• Distributed Attribute Administration but may Campus is ideal for running services, not know all attributes of users • How does a campus issue attributes for which it is not authoritative? – E. g. IEEE Membership of staff – In Grid case, Project Membership • This may be the largest hurdle due to social, political and/or legal issues – Need accepted cookbook for process • Plan on exploring signet – http: //middleware. internet 2. edu/signet/ July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 15

User Registration • How does the mapping from the User’s X 509 DN to local Campus identity get made in Name. Mapper configuration? • In initial version, this will be manual process • Yes, far from ideal • We envision – Something akin to a registration service that authenticates user’s X 509 and local credentials and puts mapping in automatically – Or a portal that hides all the X 509 from the user and also handles this mapping • E. g. PURSE, GAMA July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 17

Pseudonymous Interaction • How to maintain Shibboleth pseudonymous functionality with X 509? • Will develop online CA that issues certificates with non-identifying DNs – Register with AA just as SSO – Basically holder-of-key assertions July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 18

Authorization • Develop authorization framework in Globus Toolkit • Pluggable modules for processing authentication, gathering and processing attributes and rendering decisions • XACML used for expressing gathered identity, attribute and policy information – Convert Attributes into common format for policy evaluation – Allows for common evaluation of attributes expressed in SAML and X 509 (and others…) July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 19

Grid. Shib Status • Testing initial version internal to project • Will be a drop-in addition to GT 4. 0 and Shibboleth 1. 3 • Plan on releasing Beta version 2 -3 weeks after Shibboleth 1. 3 is released • Looking for interested testers • Project website: – http: //grid. ncsa. uiuc. edu/Grid. Shib/ July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 20

My. Proxy Enhancements for Local Integration Bill Baker, Jim Basney and Von Welch NCSA July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP

What is My. Proxy? • Independent Globus Toolkit add-on since 2000 – To be included in Globus Toolkit 4. 0 • A service for securing private keys – Keys stored encrypted with user-chosen password – Keys never leave the My. Proxy server • A service for retrieving proxy credentials • A commonly-used service for grid portal security – Integrated with OGCE, Grid. Sphere, and Grid. Port, PURSE, GAMA July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP 23

Proxy Credentials • RFC 3820: Proxy Certificate Profile • Associate a new private key and certificate with existing credentials • Short-lived, unencrypted credentials for multiple authentications in a session CA signs User signs – Restricted lifetime in certificate limits vulnerability of unencrypted key Proxy A • Credential delegation (forwarding) without transferring private keys July 1, 2005 I 2 Advanced CAMP signs Proxy B 24
