[Fiware-security] [Fiware-wpl] First FI-WARE Open Call announced

[TRABELSI, Slim]

Hi Pascal,

I took a look to the open call that is on my opinion very generic. Then I took a closer look to the section dedicated to security https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/FIWARE.Epic.General.Middleware.Security
Here is the description :
Network connections are the dominant source of security threats and distributed applications are especially vulnerable here. Designing a middleware layer that handles network connection on behalf of the applications offers the opportunity to use this middleware also as a gatekeeper that centrally handles the security requirements as specified by an application. This involves (i) providing message transport according to certain security guarantees, (ii) supporting application so they can use and build on top of these guarantees, and (iii) validating that the middleware itself is secure and implements the security guarantees correctly. This includes integrity and confidentiality of messages, identity management and authentication, access control, accountability, exchange of security (meta-)information such as credentials, and management and enforcement of security policies.

Again a very generic description that covers most of the Generic enablers that we are working on ! What does it means ? is that means that some of the proposals will address the same topics already addressed ?

Can we have more information about these topics ?

Thank you
Best
Slim
