Description
The WLCG community, with the main LHC experiments at the forefront, is moving away from x509 certificates, replacing the Authentication and Authorization layer with OAuth2 tokens. FTS, as a middleware and core component of the WLCG, plays a crucial role in the transition from x509 proxy certificates to tokens. The paper will present in-detail the FTS token design and how this will serve the needs of the community, WLCG and non-WLCG alike. Finally, a chapter will also report on performance measurements and lessons learned during the DataChallenge 2024
