Please update all bookmarks to use the Secure System - Online Systems web page. Note: with the December 7th, 2007 release users of WASS will no longer be allowed multiple logins into Secure Systems. This means that if you are logged into the system and start working on another computer, your earlier login will be ended and a new login will be initiated. Additionally, even when on the same computer, you will be unable to open another browser and log in without the earlier login ending and the later login becoming the active "session". Please note that you will be allowed to have more than one window open using the same browser. This change is being made in order to increase the level of security coming into HUD's Secure Systems. Rules of behavior for hud systems.
