Identity and Access Management (IdM) Portal

The DSS IdM Portal is a web-based application that provides Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-based authentication services to DSS applications and information systems for authorized users. Through the IdM Portal, an authorized user can access their DSS IdM Portal account via a single sign-on (SSO) capability using (PKI certificates (either a Common Access Card (CAC) or DoD-approved External Certification Authority [ECA] certificate). 

From the IdM Portal Home Page, a user may request access to multiple DSS applications that have been integrated with the Portal using the automated account request process. Once a request is approved (if applicable), the user is able to access those applications using their PKI credentials.

Gaining access to the DSS IdM Portal is a simple, two-step process that consists of:

1. Completing the DSS IdM Portal Access Request Form (available from the IdM Portal Login page)
2. Registering a CAC or other PKI credential to your newly created IdM Portal account
