This document discusses security protocols for high performance grid computing architectures. It analyzes the different network layers in grid computing protocols and identifies various security disciplines. It also analyzes various security suites available in the TCP/IP protocol architecture. The paper aims to define security disciplines at different levels of cluster computing architecture and propose applicable security suites from the TCP/IP security protocol suite. Grid computing allows sharing and aggregation of distributed computing resources to enable more powerful applications. Security is an important consideration in grid computing due to sharing resources across administrative domains.
