To address the token translation topic we have started two pilots and a third pilot is currently in preparation:
- LDAP Facade - The pilot aims at providing access to non-web resources (e.g. sftp, ssh console) for non-grid users by exploiting the existing AAIs, without the need to obtain user certificates.
- CILogon - The CILogon pilot has started to test the feasibility to provide a more advanced online service for producing certificates based on a institutional login and to delegate a proxy certificate to a non-web back-end service without bothering the user with certificate related complexity
- Unity - Unity-IdM is the 3rd solution we aim to assess to bridge SAML based identities and attributes to non-web resources. This work will likely be performed in collaboration with the EUDAT AAI team and is currently in preparation
