A Secured Multi Agent Architecture for Grid Computing

Grid computing provides big possibilities like resource sharing, resource virtualization, and capacity planning since diverse resources that are geographically dispersed are virtualized as a single entity. The associated security concerns are one of the key obstacles preventing grid computing from being broadly adopted and used. Users in a grid are concerned about the security of their assets and the privacy of their data. A host's security in terms of its data or virtual servers may be jeopardised when it interacts with a grid. By providing multilateral security, i.e., security for both the Grid client and the Grid supplier, our building design expands the degree of assurance that can be placed on the accuracy of a Grid calculation and the assurance of client-provided resources. We discuss the issue of ensuring security and present the multi-agent security construction analysis. The paper outlines a multi-agent strategy for protecting the grid environment's resources. The strategy is put forth to address the grid computing industry's growing, serious security issue. The paper defines a multi-agent security architecture that integrates the capabilities of agents with the Grid Security Infrastructure's basic security mechanism (GSI). A security Master agent and a few security task execution agents make up the strategy.
