 <description>&lt;p&gt;The Americas Grid Policy Management Authority (TAGPMA) is a federation of authentication providers and relying parties headed by a Policy Management Authority of those responsible for grids in North, Central and South America. Our goal is to foster the cross-domain trust relationships that are needed to deploy grids in the Americas and around the world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This federation is open to any grid-related authentication provider or relying party in the Americas.  Through multiple recognized authentication profiles, we will work with many different types authorities whether they implement a classic public key infrastructure or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are also involved globally with other regional grid PMA&#039;s - &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.eugridpma.org/&quot;&gt;EUGridPMA&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.apgridpma.org/&quot;&gt;APGridPMA&lt;/a&gt; - to define authentication profiles and related minimum requirements.  Members who meet these minimum requirements will be trusted globally through our involvement in the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.gridpma.org/&quot;&gt;International Grid Trust Federation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
