Abstract

We propose Proxy Certificate Trust List (PCTL) to efficiently record delegation traces for grid computing. Our security solution based on PCTL provides functions as follows: (1) On-demand inquiries about real time delegation information of grid computing underway; (2) Lightweight mutual authentication that is beneficial for proxy nodes with limited computation power as wireless devices in mobile computing; (3) A kind of revocation mechanism for proxy certificates to improve the security and availability of grid computing.
