Who is/will be using it

  • IGTF - With this LOA 2 credential, researchers will be able to obtain a "CILogon Silver" certificate approved by the International Grid Trust Federation (IGTF) for use worldwide.
  • CI Logon - The "CILogon-HA: Higher Assurance Federated Identities for DOE Science" project extends CILogon (initially developed with funding from the National Science Foundation) to provide higher assurance credentials to users of DOE facilities for collaborative science. This effort leverages the InCommon identity federation’s assurance program, officially launched in February 2012, to translate higher assurance university credentials to internationally recognized certificates (through the International Grid Trust Federation). http://ca.cilogon.org/loa
