Talk submission to Community Track

[Wenbo Mao]

Dear Sir,

I would like to submit a community talk to GGF14. Here is the title and 
abstract. The talk slides are also attached. Thank you for your review.

Background: We have been approved a RG in Sec Area (TCGridSecurity RG). 
The RG has been working on interesting research topics utilizing the 
industrial standard technology Trusted Computing, with open-source based 
augmentation codes to GSI scheduled for being delivered to GGF within 
one year timeframe. We noticed however that the work must be accompanied 
with adequate dissemination work in the GGF forum. Hence we propose for 
a talk in the community track.

Best regards,
Wenbo Mao

Title:  Innovations for Grid Security from Trusted Computing

Abstract:

The Trusted Computing (TC) initiative developed by Trusted Computing
Group (TCG) takes a distributed-system-wide approach to the provisions
of integrity protection of resources. The TC's notion of trust and
security can be described as conformed system behaviours of a
platform environment such that the conformation can be attested to a
remote challenger. We consider that such a notion of integrity
protection of resources naturally suits the security requirements for
Grid computing or science collaborations. We identify and discuss in
this paper a number of innovations that the TC technology could offer
for improving the Grid security.
