[ogsa-wg] Strawman "OGSA Express Authentication Profile" Security Profiles

[Duane Merrill]

All,

I would like to share with you the attached strawman profile documents 
regarding OGSA secure communication.  Collectively these three strawman 
documents comprise what, up until now, we've been colloquially referring 
to as the "OGSA Express Authentication Profile."  (Other suggestions for 
what to name this trio, or for the profile documents themselves, are 
welcome.)

The three profile documents are intended to be complementary:

    * /OGSA Security Profile 2.0 - Secure Addressing/ document profiles
      the disclosure of secure communication requirements (and ancillary
      tokens/data) within endpoint references.  Many of the ideas and
      mechanisms in this document have been adapted from (and therefore
      should provide semantic compatibility with) the /OGSA Basic
      Security Profile 1.0 - Core /and Liberty Alliance ID-WSF security
      documents.

    * /OGSA Security Profile 2.0 - Secure Transport/ document profiles
      the use of transport layer security within the OGSA context.  Many
      of the ideas and mechanisms in this document have been adapted
      from (and therefore should provide semantic compatibility with)
      the /OGSA Security Profile 1.0 - Secure Channel.
      /

    * /OGSA Security Profile 2.0 - Secure SOAP Messaging/ document
      profiles the use of message layer security within the OGSA
      context.  This document is primarily an extension and refinement
      of the /WS-I Basic Security Profile 1.0/.  A crucial
      characteristic of this document is the extensibility provisioning
      for additional message-level authentication tokens/schemes.

Also attached is a OGSA secure-communication use-case document that 
motivates the requirements and capabilities afforded by these profiles.

Looking forward to discussing these with everyone next week!

Regards,

Duane
