Presentation
The LHC experiments have significantly evolved their distributed data management architecture over time. This resulted in the underlying WLCG infrastructure moving from a very rigid network topology, based on the MONARC model, to a more relaxed system, where data movement between regions or countries does not necessarily need to involve T1 centers. While this evolution brought obvious...

Federated identity management (FIM) in general and federated identity management for research communities (FIM4R) is an arrangement that can be made among multiple organisations that lets subscribers use the same identification data to obtain access to the secured resources of all organisations in the group. Specifically in the various research communities there is an increased interest in a...

The eXtreme Scale Identity Management (XSIM) effort is seeking to capture the trust relationships between both large and small scientific collaborations and their resource providers so as to understand the evolution leading to the existing environment.
Based on analysis of interviews with representatives from Virtual Organizations and Resource Providers, XSIM will later be proposing a...

Presentation
This presentation provides an update of the security landscape since the last meeting.
It describes the main vectors of compromises in the academic community and presents interesting recent attacks. It also covers security risks management in general, as well as the security aspects of the current hot topics in computing, for example identity federation and virtualisation.

Presentation
This talk will be an update on the activities of the IPv6 working group since the meeting in Beijing. CERN has now announced that they could run out of IPv4 addresses during 2014 so this has resulted in increased pressure on our activities. The working group has more active participation from the LHC experiments; we are also seeking out more WLCG Tier 1s and TIer 2s. Data transfer tests...

Presentation
In order to build a national infrastructure for High Availability and Disaster Recovery, we are deploying a dedicated DNS multimaster architecture. The architecture is based on bind DLZ (Dynamically Loadable Zones).
The new zone (ha.infn.it) is defined on top of a MySQL backend.
Two or more MySQL servers are configured as multi-master servers in order to allow the ha.infn.it zone to be...
