  2. The KFKI Campus • Hosts five independent academic research institutes • One of them is the KFKI Research Institute for Particle and Nuclear Physics (KFKI RMKI) • The Computer Networking Center of KFKI RMKI is responsible for the central computing and network services of the KFKI Campus

  3. KFKI CA • No subordinate CAs • One RA, which is performed by the KFKI CA itself • No plan for additional RAs • Usual defaults: • Root CA key: 5 years, 2048 bits • Entity keys: 1 year, min 1024 bits • CRLs: after revocation or every month

  4. KFKI CA end entities I. • Academic entities of the KFKI Campus: • Institutions • Individuals, computers, services belonging to the institutions • External individuals involved in the scientific, research projects of the academic institutions Cert usages: user/host certs for Grid, service certs (http, pop/imap, smtp), user certs for roaming users (smtp ssl/tls)

  5. KFKI CA end entities II. • Entities of the Hungarian academic community involved in Grid related scientific or research projects.

  6. Authentication of organizations • Campus organization: RA directly contacts the representative for the autheticity of the request • Non-campus organization: official document stamped and signed by the official representative of the organization is required

  7. Authentication of individuals • Local requester must appear in-person before the RA and show the identification card, passport or driving licence • If the RA personally knows the requester, authentication over phone call is accepted • Distant subscriber: copy of the identity card manually signed by a well-known contact person of the organization required and the subscriber is called back on the official phone number for further checkings.

  8. Authentication of machine/service • Either the requester must fulfil the individual authentication, or the request must be signed by the requester's valid cert issued by KFKI CA • Requester must adequately prove that he/she is responsible for the entity in question: checked by the computer technical contact persons of the institutions

  9. Re-keying • The request must contain a new public key • Authentication is either as a new request, or request must be signed by the valid non-expired, non-revoked certificate of the requester

  10. Namespace • Fixed part: C=HU,O=KFKI • C=HU,O=KFKI,OU=people,CN=Kiss Istvan • C=HU,O=KFKI,OU=services,CN=www.kfki.hu • C=HU,O=KFKI,OU=services, CN=ldap/ldap.kfki.hu • C=HU,O=KFKI,OU=grid,OU=people, CN=Kiss Pal Hungarian ISO Latin 2 chars are converted: é -> e, í -> i, ó -> o, ő -> o, ...

  11. Technical details • Dedicated Linux PCs with CD writer drive • Full system backup on CD • Signing machine has no network card, locked in a room on the first floor of the building of the Computer Networking Center • Removable media is kept in a secure cabinet, backups in multiple locations

  12. Software • OpenCA • Sleepycat DB • Apache • RBAC not activated yet - we are more accustomed to LIDS

  13. Open issues • Requests sent by E-mail (S/MIME) should be imported into OpenCA • User interface for re-keying • Full Hungarian translation of the user interface Suggestions are welcomed!
