We will be using D2L Brightspace this semester as our learning management system (LMS).

Links to D2L Brightspace, Office 365, SSC Self-Service, and Employee email are available in the footer of every www.ssc.edu webpage under the Self-Service heading.  You can also bookmark these tools (Example:  D2L = https://d2l.ssc.edu/).

Multi-Factor Authentication

Multi-Factor Authentication is now required for SSC cloud-based services like Office 365, and D2L Brightspace. What is MFA and why is it important? Multi-Factor Authentication enhances our cyber security by requiring users to identify themselves by more than a username and password (which can be stolen). MFA requires an additional verification code sent by via email, SMS or to a mobile app (Microsoft Authenticator). You will have a choice of secondary authentication method.

Create or Recover Your Passphrase and Hint

Each instructor will create their own SSC passphrase to use with their network account, as well as, a hint in case the passphrase is forgotten. For security reasons, you will work directly with Network Systems. Please contact Donna Martin at 708-596-2000, extension 2670 to set or recovery your passphrase and hint.

If Donna is not available, please leave a voicemail message with your name, phone number, and the best times to return your call.

Here are some passphrase examples :

Passphrase	Sentence used	Hint

MyDogsNameisSklppy	My Dog’s Name is Skippy	Pet’s name

Our system has restrictions on acceptable passphrases. Please adhere to these rules in order for your passphrase to be processed:

•             Must be at least 14 characters in length

•             Must contain at least one uppercase letter

•             Must contain at least one lowercase letter
