GEOAxIS Authentication

Your GEOAxIS Disadvantaged User Account (DUA) serves as a secondary Authentication method (e.g. for access on mobile devices without card readers) associated with your PKI credentials. You must undergo a one-time registration process to create and activate your DUA using a trusted PKI hard token credential. Trusted PKI hard token credentials include: CACs, NSS Tokens, and Non-Authoritative Attribute Source Cards (PIV, PIV-I, ECA Cards) registered with Gx. If you have never been issued a trusted PKI hard token credential, you cannot register a DUA.

To create your DUA, ensure your PKI hard token credential is inserted into your card reader and select the PKI Certificate option on this page. Once you've been authenticated, you will be prompted to create your DUA. Alternatively you can navigate to the DUA webpage (https://geoaxis.nga.mil/users/disadvantaged.xhtml) to create your DUA.

Following successful creation of your DUA, you can access web-based mission resources with your new DUA credentials. DUAs cannot be used to log in to NGA network resources (e.g. SBU/SECNet workstations).

NOTE:If you have been issued a CAC/NSS Token, but currently have a token hold on your account, you can still register a DUA. To do this, authenticate via the Disadvantaged User option with the username/password associated with your SBU/SECNet workstation credentials

If you need technical assistance with your DUA (e.g. you forgot your password or your account is expired), please contact the GEOAxIS Operations Support Team at 508-622-5549 (Commercial) or 576-1717 (Secure).

NOTE: DUAs are NOT the same as NGA network (e.g. SECNet/SBUNet desktop login) usernames/passwords, which are managed by the ESC.
