Month: 2025-08. This period focused on strengthening authentication for the /mals service in osg-htc/osg-htchub.io.git by introducing Elliptic Curve (EC) based key support and integrating a Pelican-generated key into the OAuth2 keys configuration. The update enables ES256 (P-256) based authentication for the /mals namespace, aligning with modern security requirements and improving compatibility with clients leveraging EC keys. The changes promote future key rotation readiness and reduce authentication friction for updated clients. The work was delivered with careful changes to the repository and configuration to minimize risk and ensure smooth rollout.

March 2025 performance summary: Delivered authentication reliability, discovery improvements, and security hardening across Pelican, HTCondor, CHTC, and osg-htc repositories. Notable features include documentation port update for token issuer, JWKS keys and OpenID Connect discovery surface for ResearchDrive, and major security hardening via CI configuration improvements and retirement of outdated token issuer. Fixed a WLCG token claim bug in LocalCredmon to ensure correct token data. These changes reduce token misconfigurations, enable safer testing, and strengthen overall security posture, while demonstrating proficiency in JWKS management, OpenID Connect discovery, and secure CI practices.
