A novel security framework for computational grid

The increase in the collaborative data sharing and usage has resulted in resource usage being more and more distributed. The need to access and use more and more distributed computers has led to the development of Grid Technologies. This paper discusses the security requirements of the grid environment against potential threats of day to day attacks. This paper deals with discovering the threat, providing immediate solution and alerting all the other members in the grid environment about the threat so that they can be prepared for the attacks. The grid environment basic components themselves work together to protect the grid environment from potential threats. This paper discusses the end solution to prevent the spread of the attacks and does not alter the basic security criteria of the grid.
