Content Background Work
Items Our IT-systems are becoming more and more integrated and the concept of a User is widening to, in many cases, include all our students and personnel. It is becoming more and more unrealistic to manage users, accounts and access control within each application. A natural question is therefore: Is it possible, for many of our systems, to use a common, network based, infrastructural Access Control Service (supported by catalogues of persons, roles and resources)? What are in that case the realistic requirements for such a service? This is the web site for a joint project within swedish universities and university colleges, initiated by HITS (Högskolans IT-säkerhetssamarbete). Its task is to find the answer to the questions above. Or as formulated in our directive: To find technical solutions for PKI-based Authentication and Access Control. It is at this stage a preparatory study. The result
for the preparatory project shall be It is the ambition of the members of the project group to continue the cooperation in another project to implement/buy such a service. We envision the service being run locally at the universities. Torbjörn
