Using Federated Identity for NSF- and NIH-Funded Cyberinfrastructure
Both the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health support a number of cyberinfrastructure projects around the country. Researchers and scientists at your campus may participate in one or more such projects (or be interested in doing so). But what are the policy and technical issues you face in helping your faculty and researchers seamlessly connect with such projects? How can federated identity help and, more importantly, what are the issues and barriers involved? We’ll present a case study from the NIH-funded Indiana Clinical and Translational Science Institute, and a roadmap to using InCommon and federated identity for participating in cyberinfrastructure projects funded by NSF.
Speakers
Bill Barnett, Director of Information Architectures, Indiana Clinical and Translational Science Institute, Indiana University
Von Welch, Deputy Director of the Center for Applied Cybersecurity Research, Indiana University
Host/Moderator
Tom Barton, Senior Director for Architecture, Integration & Security and Chief Information Security Officer, University of Chicago
