Data-intensive science applications in research fields such as bioinformatics, chemistry, and material science are increasingly becoming multi-domain in nature. To augment local campus CyberInfrastructure (CI) resources, these applications rely on multi-institutional resources that are remotely accessible (e.g., scientific instruments, supercomputers, public clouds). Provisioning of such federated CI resources has been traditionally based on applications’ performance and quality of service (QoS) requirements. This talk will detail our project that aims to augment traditional resource provisioning schemes through novel schemes for formalizing end-to-end security requirements to align security posture across multi-domain resources with heterogeneous policies. We will present our OnTimeURB broker design to foster end-to-end multi-domain security for science gateway applications in bioinformatics and health information sharing that involves defining, formalizing and implementing security specifications along an application's workflow lifecycle stages.
