Operational security, threat intelligence & distributed computing: the WLCG Security Operations Center Working Group. Presented at 23rd International Conference on Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics (CHEP 2018), Sofia, Bulgaria

The modern security landscape for distributed computing in High Energy Physics (HEP) includes a wide range of threats employing different attack vectors. The nature of these threats is such that the most effective method for dealing with them is to w...

Caching technologies for Tier-2 sites: A UK perspective (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Skipsey, S. C., Brew, C., Forti, A., Traynor, D., Li, T., Boutcher, A., Roy, G., Stewart, G., & Britton, D. (2018, July). Caching technologies for Tier-2 sites: A UK perspective. Presented at 23rd International Conference on Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics (CHEP 2018), Sofia, Bulgaria

Pressures from both WLCG VOs and externalities have led to a desire to "simplify" data access and handling for Tier-2 resources across the Grid. This has mostly been imagined in terms of reducing book-keeping for VOs, and total replicas needed across... Read More about Caching technologies for Tier-2 sites: A UK perspective.
