DataONE and CILogon: Summer 2011

Post date: Jul 8, 2011 2:42:17 PM

The Summer 2011 newsletter of the DataONE (Data Observation Network for Earth) project provides an update on the integration of the CILogon Service with the DataONE core cyberinfrastructure. As part of this integration, CILogon will be including DataONE-specific user attributes in the certificates it issues to DataONE users, so DataONE services can easily use those attributes when making authorization decisions. This is one example of the different ways in which we are customizing the CILogon Service to provide seamless integration with cyberinfrastructure. For more information on the customization possibilities, please contact us (help@cilogon.org).
