Goal

WP2 focuses on the data and metadata management in Galaxy to improve the handling of sensitive data by integrating relevant registries and archives in a efficient and secure manner

​

Tasks

2.1. Encrypted data processing (IT, DE, NO, CZ, ES, AUS)

    • achieve data separation between users and no Galaxy administrators’ control
    • based on Crypt4GH

2.2. EGA Galaxy integration, authentication (ES, NO, SI)

    • add support for accessing authorized EGA datasets
    • testbench: Norwegian National Federated EGA network

2.3. Galaxy connector to the Beacon network (UK, NL)

    • enable queries within Galaxy tools and workflows

2.4. COVID-19 data handling and analysis (NL, IL, BE, DE, FR, NO, SI, AUS)

    • adding access to iReceptor platform

TSD implementation of GA4GH tokens - ongoing

GA4GH passport support for identity management and authorisation in progress.

Current issues:

  • Level of assurance
  • Multiple tokens linked to the main passport token
  • How to involve the HPC quota in the visas (LS AAI is only for Data access for now, no HPC allocation management)
  • Development is ongoing. JWT tokens are supported already in production
