To provide PKI Operators with basic knowledge and technical understanding on Data Authentication, Data Surety, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) concepts and terminology. The Operators will learn how to generate key pairs, how to submit certificate requests and how to retrieve and install certificates for radionuclide stations using RSSI software and for waveform stations using SSI software and Guralp DM24SxEAM and Affinity, Nanometrics Europa-T and Centaur and Kinemetrics Q330MPlus digitizers.
Agenda:
• Basic Information on Data Authentication.
• Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) Concepts and Terminology.
• Data Surety.
• PKI Portal introduction.
• Demonstration.
• Generate key pairs and submit certificate request.
• Retrieve and install certificates for:
• SSI/RSSI software
• Guralp CMG-DM24 and Affinity, Nanometrics Europa-T and Centaur and Kinemetrics Q330MPlus digitizers.
To provide Station Managers with an understanding of Operation and Maintenance activities in the scope of the Post Certification Activities contracts. To ensure proper level of knowledge in introduction of changes to the PCA contracts, PTS procurement process, mechanisms of Unscheduled Maintenance (USM) and logistical support, configuration change management process, and communication with the PTS through formalized reports.
Understanding the role of National Data Centres in the CTBT verification regime;
Building and/or improving the National Data Centre capabilities;
Providing participants with sufficient knowledge for accessing and using IMS data and IDC products; and
Initiation to software tools for the analysis of IMS radionuclide data.
The objective of this technical meeting is to continue the process of completing the IDC Validation and Acceptance Test Plan (VATP). The focus for this particular meeting will be to;
1. Discuss the draft VATP and review comments made regarding the current draft
2. Review the preliminary results for the 2024 Experiment
3. Review suggestions to address specific issues in the current VATP draft
4. Review suggested updates made to the Test Implementation Plans from the 2023 Experiment
To provide station operators with the basic knowledge and technical understanding on the operations, maintenance and management of an IMS station using waveform technology and, more specifically, to provide hands-on training for the various operational and maintenance procedures.
