Access to Systems

Account Setup and Password Reset

UC San Diego uses two main accounts for accessing systems: Active Directory (AD) and Business Systems. Many systems also require Two-Step Login using the Duo application.

Active Directory (AD)

• Your account is set up during onboarding.
• Use the password reset tool.
• Contact the SDSC Helpdesk with problems.

Business Systems

• Complete the self registration process to get a business systems account.
• Reset your password.

Single-Sign-On (SSO)

Single-Sign-On (SSO) is a mechanism for verifying your identity when you to sign onto UCSD applications and websites. SSO works with AD, Business Systems, and/or Student accounts. The application you are trying to access determines which type(s) of account may be used to sign on.
