JPAS Wednesdays

Due to the demand for Medium Hardware certificates, each Wednesday we will have a limited schedule of same-day issuance at our Fairfax location and Chesapeake Va location. To schedule an issuance time, please email ecahelp@orc.com and include JPAS Wednesdays in the Subject.
PLEASE REMEMBER, you will need to bring the necessary forms of identification as found under Certificate Request Instructions 2. Identity Verification
JPAS logon procedures are being updated to provide additional security and privacy of clearance data and personally identifiable information (PII). These changes are pursuant to Department of Defense (DoD) regulations mandating improved security by restricting access to only users with cryptographic logon. Users will need three items to access JPAS by January 2012.  These three items are:
  1. An active JPAS account;
  2. An approved active PKI Certificate; and
  3. Hardware and Software needed to read the PKI certificate.
ORC is pleased to provide ECA credentials (items 2 and 3) for the JPAS infrastructure. While either type of PKI Certificate (Medium Token or Medium Hardware) is accepted, please be aware that there are a growing number of DoD sites that require Medium Hardware and will not accept Medium Token. To avoid unnecessary costs, we recommend that users who will access additional DoD sites select Medium Hardware.
Please see our pricing page for information on the necessary hardware and software for Medium Hardware and Medium Token certificates.
