[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS] ROS2 security functional tests

[Abby]

Hi friends,

My team at Amazon is planning to release a package that contains a series of functional tests to ensure security is enforced properly in a ROS2 system. These tests target access control and authentication plugins in the DDS layer. To summarize, the **Authentication plugin** verifies the identity of a user/application that invokes operations on DDS, performs mutual authentication between participants and establish shared secrets, and the **Access Control **plugin**** enforces policy decision on what operations on DDS an authenticated participant can perform i.e. which domain it can join, and which topic it can pub/sub.

You can run these tests in your CI/CD. The package comes with a README that will help you set up the package.

If you have any suggestions for making this more useful for you, please let us know.

Thanks in advance!

**Timeline**
Status: Upcoming
Deadline for release: 11/16/2018
