More and more digital research data are being produced and made available by institutional repositories, data centres and other providers worldwide. Research has become increasingly data intensive, interdisciplinary and international: researchers use data and associated tools and services with unprecedented frequency, and collaborate with colleagues from institutions across Europe and worldwide. In the light of these developments, organisations face the challenge of efficiently controlling user access to data and resources. For these reasons, adequate systems for reliable user identification and subsequent authorisation to use data and services must be established. In order to encourage researchers to use these systems, state-of-the-art features such as Identity Management and Single Sign-on are required. Systems for implementing these features are currently being set up by many research infrastructures and federations. They are commonly referred to as AAI – Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructures. (Source: Foster Open Science)

The ESCAPE 1-hour webinar will cover basic AAI concepts that are being considered for the development of ESCAPE Data Infrastructure for Open Science (ESCAPE DIOS)
The webinar will also focus on the INDIGO IAM service and its deployment in ESCAPE, Token-based Authentication and Authorization in the ESCAPE Data lake, followed with an example based on the Apache Web Server on integrating services with IAM.
The webinar is aimed for all those interested in AAI in the context of ESCAPE project, especially service developers and integrators.
