ICSID
An ICSID is the username and password used to authenticate to IT resources within the Faculty of Science. These include:
- Microsoft Windows PCs

ICSID is based on your Active Directory details. ICS-Legacy-ID systems are being phased out. UNIX systems can now be accessed using your ICSID.
Obtaining ICSID
The ICSID is created when you join the Faculty or by having an Account Request form submitted by an existing user on your behalf.
The ICSID is created automatically from enrollment details. See student accounts.
