Abstract
If any data is stored on publicly available services, then it is obligatory for the service to apply different security policies in order to prevent information leakage to unauthorized users. This also applies to e-Science gateways, where sensitive (for example, medical) data might be stored. Moreover, e-Science gateways usually enable the usage of distributed computing infrastructures that apply some sort of authentication, which should either be provided by the users, or be completely hidden and implemented inside the gateway in the form of robot credentials. In this chapter we discuss some aspects of security applied within WS-PGRADE/gUSE.
