Abstract
Trust flows in two directions in a Grid environment. The first is from the Grid user to the Grid resource, that is, the Grid trusts that the user will protect confidential information. The second is from the resource to the user, that is, the Grid willpprotect the user’s Grid job and associated data. This paper comments on how Trusted Computing technology can be used to establish trust in both directions, in three types of Grids that may be interest of to commercial organisations.
