The Cyprus Grid Certification Authority (CyGridCA) is the top-level certification authority for Grids in Cyprus. It provides X.509 certificates for identification and authentication purposes related to Grid activities in Cyprus. The CyGridCA was established within the EU project CrossGrid, and was later extended to cover the latest EU project EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe). Its duty is to certify, with its digital signature, the following: * the public keys belonging to the CyGrid Certification Authority; * the public keys of the registration authorities which act for and on behalf of CyGridCA; * the public keys of end entities (users and machines).CyGridCA is mutually recognized by the Certification Authorities of most European countries and the USA. It has been certified by the EUGridPMA, the European Policy Management Authority for Grid Authentication in e-Science. For more information, please check also the Acceptance Matrix maintained by Dr. Coghlan of Trinity College, Dublin.
