The Virtual Organisation Management (VO-Management) subsystem provides gCube security-related components. It is part of the GCube Infrastructure Enabling Services, and its main aim is to enable the controlled sharing of gCube resources within a gCube infrastructure. The components implement Security As A Service Model (Secaas) and are based on Service Oriented Authorization, Authentication and Accounting (SOA3) framework.

The main entities characterising the security domain are the following:

  • Actors, i.e. an entity willing to perform a given task. ... please expand this by saying that they should be recognised (thus a link to AuthN) and managed (thus a link to User Mgtm);
  • Resources, i.e. ... please expand this
  • Policies, i.e. ... please expand this with a link to AuthZ

The detailed description of the subsystem is on Data e-Infrastructure Policy-oriented Security Facilities page, where the links to the main functionalities:
