  2. Gridsite • What is Gridsite? • Set of tools for using GRID certificates over HTTP(S) • Extension to Apache web server • Files or web pages • Areas of Interest • Website management • Security

  3. Website Management • Edit pages “On the fly” • Various other operations: • Delete/rename/edit files & directories • Define groups • Delegate control of sections of a site to others

  4. Security • Access control done through GRID certificates and GACL • Can be loaded in to most web browsers • Uniquely identifies you • No need to remember usernames and passwords • Access Control List (ACL) files can become difficult to read and edit • Web based editor built into Gridsite
