Abstract

Proxy Certificates (PCs) is one of key mechanisms in Grid Security Infrastructure (GSI). Users need PCs to access grid service. But there is no effective mechanism to manage the PCs in GSI. In order to apply GSI in Military Grid, a novel adaptive Proxy Certificates management scheme is brought forward based on the hierarchical one-way hash chains. The hierarchical one-way chain consists of two or more levels of chains, where values of a first-level chain act as roots of a set of second-level chains and each PC is protected by a hash value, so the PCs' available time can be controlled adaptively and safely. The experimental results indicate that the scheme more adapt to the Military Grid environments.
