Fostering evolutionary solution for Grid security with MyKad

Grid security infrastructure (GSI) is designated to enable dynamic, scalable, and distributed virtual organizations (VOs) and end-processing for end-users. It is aimed to be applied in large scale distributed computing environments where computations involved many processes interactions and utilizing local and remote resources. This paper steers implementation of GSI with MyKad. The intentions are to demonstrate a working security solution founded on Globus Toolkit (GTK) extended with the capability to accept proxy certificates generated from MyKad. We expound on our experience in building such system, explaining the requirements, installation procedures and also end-to-end flow of such system.
