The OSG Security Team wants to inform that Protect Network, one of the
Identity Providers accepted by the CILogon CA, will no longer be
available after 12/31/2014. Most OSG users are getting certificate
directly via the OSG CA, however CILogon has been available as an option
for a number of years.
If you have been getting personal certificates via cilogon.org, and have
been using Protect Network to authenticate, you will no longer be able
to get new certificates after 12/31/2014.
We recommend using your home institution's Identity Provider if it is
available on the pulldown list on the cilogon.org website, get a new
certificate via the OSG CA, or else renew your current cert before the
end of the year and then seek other arrangements.
If you need help getting a certificate to replace a cilogon.org/Protect
Network certificate, please contact the security team by opening a GOC
ticket.
