Kevin Minder commented on HADOOP-9392:
--------------------------------------
I'm happy to announce that we have secured a time slot and dedicated space
during Hadoop Summit NA dedicated to forward looking Hadoop security design
collaboration. Currently, a room has been allocated on the 26th from 1:45 to
3:30 PT. Specific location will be available at the Summit and any changes in
date or time will be announced publicly to the best of our abilities. In order
to create a manageable agenda for this session, I'd like to schedule some prep
meetings via meetup.com to start discussions and preparations with those that
would be interested in co-organizing the session.

> This is an umbrella entry for one of project Rhino’s topic, for details of
> project Rhino, please refer to
> https://github.com/intel-hadoop/project-rhino/. The major goal for this entry
> as described in project Rhino was
>
> “Core, HDFS, ZooKeeper, and HBase currently support Kerberos authentication
> at the RPC layer, via SASL. However this does not provide valuable attributes
> such as group membership, classification level, organizational identity, or
> support for user defined attributes. Hadoop components must interrogate
> external resources for discovering these attributes and at scale this is
> problematic. There is also no consistent delegation model. HDFS has a simple
> delegation capability, and only Oozie can take limited advantage of it. We
> will implement a common token based authentication framework to decouple
> internal user and service authentication from external mechanisms used to
> support it (like Kerberos)”
>
> We’d like to start our work from Hadoop-Common and try to provide common
> facilities by extending existing authentication framework which support:
> 1. Pluggable token provider interface
> 2. Pluggable token verification protocol and interface
> 3. Security mechanism to distribute secrets in cluster nodes
> 4. Delegation model of user authentication
