Security Model for Scady Grid Toolkit Analysis and Implementation

Rakesh Bhatnagar,  Jayesh Patel

Security is the most critical aspect today in distributed computations. Grid computing shares and use resources in dynamic distributed environments. The dynamic nature of Grid environments results in security concerns in high performance applications. Almost all the communications in this distributed sharing environment are done using basic and standard cryptographic algorithms. But these algorithms do not provide the required security. Hence there is a need of new, strong and reliable technical approaches to solve these challenges. This paper analyzes the GUI Grid toolkit – SCADY (Scady & Dynamic) which is designed by the authors, describes various security approaches and proposes the security mechanism for tasks of SCADY based on the X.509 certification so that high performance applications can be catered.
