If, after reading this guide, you are unable to log onto SCIP, contact the SCIP Help Desk at dsca.sciphelp@mail.mil. Digital Certificate with Name CAC or PKI users One or more digital certificates may appear, indicating you probably log on using a Common Access Card (CAC) or Private Key Infrastructure (PKI) software certificate. If you have previously registered with the SCIP Access Administrator as a CAC/PKI user, select the appropriate certificate and click OK. The appropriate certificate is the non- e-mail certificate issued by the CA (Certificate Authority) of the certificate sent to SCIP Help via the digital signature If you have NOT registered your CAC/PKI with the SCIP Access Administrator, you will not be able to access SCIP. Exit out of the browser and contact dsca.sciphelp@mail.mil for further instructions on how to register your certificate. Token Users Token users must have an RSA SecurID token, which displays a different 6-digit number, called a TOKENCODE, and changes every 60 seconds. Input your UserID assigned by the SCIP Access Administrator and click Continue. 4
If you have successfully created a PIN and logged on to SCIP, skip to here. First time token users and users in receipt of a PIN reset should continue. Enter the 6-digit TOKENCODE number from the token in the Passcode area and click Authenticate. This takes you to the ClearTrust Login screen. Create an 8-position Personal Identification Number (PIN). The PIN must be exactly 8 positions with letters and numbers only (no special characters). The PIN should be something that is easily remembered; do not forget your 8-position PIN (e.g. mypin123). Enter the 8-position PIN, reenter the PIN to confirm, and click. Wait until you see the current TOKENCODE number change to a new 6-digit number. Enter the 8- position PIN you just created (step above) followed by the new 6-digit TOKENCODE from your token (14 total positions). The combination of PIN and TOKENCODE is called a PASSCODE. Click. 5
If you receive a logon unsuccessful message, wait until the current TOKENCODE changes to a new 6- digit number then repeat the step above. After logging on to the Portal for the first time, subsequent logons are accomplished by entering your assigned UserID (and clicking Continue), followed by your 14-position PASSCODE, (your personal 8- position PIN plus the newest 6-digit TOKENCODE) from your token. If your logon fails, do not attempt another logon until a new 6-digit TOKENCODE is displayed. After three consecutive logon failures, you are prompted to enter the next 6-digit TOKENCODE following the one you just entered. Five consecutive failures or attempted logons causes a lockout of your Portal account. Request a reset of your PIN through the SCIP Access Administrator. If you have any problems or questions, contact: dsca.sciphelp@mail.mil. 6
