Shibboleth As A Tool For Authorized Access Control To The Subversion Repository System, Linh B. Ngo, Amy W. Apon Sep 2007

Shibboleth As A Tool For Authorized Access Control To The Subversion Repository System, Linh B. Ngo, Amy W. Apon

Publications

Shibboleth is an architecture and protocol for allowing users to authenticate and be authorized to use a remote resource by logging into the identity management system that is maintained at their home institution. With Shibboleth, a federation of institutions can share resources among users and yet allow the administration of both the user access control to resources and the user identity and attribute information to be performed at the hosting or home institution. Subversion is a version control repository system that allows the creation of fine-grained permissions to files and directories. In this project an infrastructure, Shibbolized Subversion, has been …

The Great Plains Network (Gpn) Middleware Test Bed, Amy Apon, Gregory Monaco, Gordon Springer Sep 2006

The Great Plains Network (Gpn) Middleware Test Bed, Amy Apon, Gregory Monaco, Gordon Springer

Publications

GPN (Great Plains Network) is a consortium of public universities in seven mid-western states. GPN goals include regional strategic planning and the development of a collaboration environment, middleware services and a regional grid for sharing computational, storage and data resources. A major challenge is to arrive at a common authentication and authorization service, based on the set of heterogeneous identity providers at each institution. GPN has built a prototype middleware test bed that includes Shibboleth and other NMI-EDIT middleware components. The test bed includes several prototype end-user applications, and is being used to further our research into fine-grained access control …
