    Abstract: A bill of sale for five slaves, a soft leather wallet, and a letter regarding a pre-Civil War bond, belonging to Jackson Napoleon Chadwick and his heirs.Scope and Content Note: The collection contains a bill of sale for five slaves, a soft leather wallet, and a letter regarding a pre-Civil War bond, belonging to Jackson Napoleon Chadwick and his heirs. The wallet (7" tall and about 3.25" wide when closed) with an attached notepad includes notations that give a rare glimpse of the provenance of the wallet, from 1839 when it was given to Jackson Napoleon Chadwick by his brother S. W. Chadwick. Below this note is another written by Bessie Chadwick Minge stating that the wallet was found among her father's belonging after his death in August 1898. A final note added in January 1907, says that the "pencil was left in my husband's jacket at the time of his death." There is no signature on this last notation.Also in this collection of papers is a bill of sale for five slaves (two girls and three boys) between the ages of eleven and sixteen. Jackson Chadwick made the purchase in Mobile in March 1861.The final item in the collection is an 1869 letter from Charles J. Friend to David Minge regarding Friend's efforts to discharge Minge's $5,000 debt, incurred before the Civil War, to Mrs. M. E. C. Gilliam. MingeBiographical/Historical Note: Jackson Napoleon Chadwick was probably born in Texas around 1828. He had at least one brother, S. W. Chadwick. J.

She married Turner Christian, with who, she had one son, Turner, Jr. She died on Mary 25, 1972

    Authorisation in Grid Computing

    No full text
    This paper briefly surveys how authorisation in Grid computing has evolved during the last few years, and presents the latest developments in which Grid applications can utilise a policy controlled authorisation infrastructure to make decisions about which users are allowed to perform which actions on which Grid resources. The paper describes the Global Grid Forum SAML interface for connecting policy based authorisation infrastructures to Grid applications, and then describes the PERMIS authorisation infrastructure which has implemented this interface. The paper concludes with suggestions about how this work will evolve in the future

    Secure Role-based Messaging

    No full text
    This paper describes a secure role based messaging system design based on the use of X.509 Attribute Certificates for holding user roles. Access to the mes-sages is authorised by the PERMIS Privilege Management Infrastructure, a pol-icy driven role based access control (RBAC) infrastructure, which allows the assignment of roles to be distributed between trusted issuing authorities, and allows a change of access control policy at runtime. Messages can be sent by roles and users, and can be sent to roles and users. Messages are secure in their exchange between senders and recipients. Details of the security and messaging design are presented

    Using SAML to link the GLOBUS toolkit to the PERMIS authorisation infrastructure

    No full text
    In this article the new trend in authorisation decision making will be described, using the Security Assertions Mark up Language (SAML). We then present an overview of the Globus Toolkit (GT), used in Grid computing environments, and highlight its authorisation requirements. We then introduce the PERMIS authorisation infrastructure and describe how it has been adapted to support SAML so that it can be deployed to make authorisation decisions for GTversion 3.3

    Secure Knowledge Management

    No full text
    As the health care industry enters the era of knowledge management it must place security at the foundation of the transition. Risks are pervasive to every aspect of information and knowledge management. Without secure practices that seek to avoid or mitigate the effects of these risks, how can health care organisations ensure that knowledge is captured, stored, distributed, used, destroyed and restored securely? In an age where risks and security threats are ever-increasing, secure knowledge management is an essential business practice. The cost of security breaches in a health care context can range from the unauthorized access of confidential information to the potential loss or unauthorized modification of patient information leading to patient injury. In this chapter the authors highlight different approaches to minimising these risks, based on the concepts of authentication, authorization, data integrity, availability and confidentiality

    How to securely break into RBAC: the BTG-RBAC model

    No full text
    Access control models describe frameworks that dictate how subjects (e.g. users) access resources. In the Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model access to resources is based on the role the user holds within the organization. Although flexible and easier to manage within large-scale authorization frameworks, RBAC is usually a static model where access control decisions have only two output options: Grant or Deny. Break The Glass (BTG) policies can be provided in order to break or override the access controls within an access control policy but in a controlled and justifiable manner. The main objective of this paper is to integrate BTG within the NIST/ANSI RBAC model in a transparent and secure way so that it can be adopted generically in any domain where unanticipated or emergency situations may occur. The new proposed model, called BTG-RBAC, provides a third decision option BTG. This allows break the glass policies to be implemented in any application without any major changes to either the application or the RBAC authorization infrastructure, apart from the decision engine. Finally, in order to validate the model, we discuss how the BTG-RBAC model is being introduced within a Portuguese healthcare institution where the legislation requires that genetic information must be accessed by a restricted group of healthcare professionals. These professionals, advised by the ethical committee, have required and asked for the implementation of the BTG concept in order to comply with the said legislation

    A Blessed Word: The Mixed Life of Edward Marion Chadwick (1840-1921)

    No full text
    Undoubtedly, Major Canon Edward Marion Chadwick, K.C., Honorary Chief Shakotyohkwísakskénha (1840-1921) is one of the greatest Canadians whose figure languishes in obscurity. Using theo-political insights as a strategy for life writing, this thesis narrates Chadwick’s biography by exploring the multiple mixed commitments that defined his existence, arguing for his status as persona mixta. As simultaneous professional, and amateur; Anglo-Irish Canadian and adopted Mohawk; ecclesiastical layman, and citizen soldier, Chadwick, embodying an idiosyncratic vision of imperial citizenship, enthusiastically transgressed and conformed himself to categories of civility in Victorian Canada. While Chadwick was rendered virtually invisible by these dangerous mixings, he left behind a brilliant legacy of achievements of monumental significance in diverse endeavors. Leveraging his own extensive diaries, an unparalleled witness, and other precious primary sources, the contours of Chadwick’s Gothic body are traced, his attainments documented, while unique testimony of important events and personalities in Canadian history in Chadwick’s own words is also offered.Doctor of Theology (ThD
