You'll need someone with IAT write access to create your PSA. This can be any CSR, or Heidi Lowe in OIT Web Hosting (as of Oct 2026)
You will receive:
- A standard username combining your unit ID and regular account name ( "comm-gburdell3")
- A temporary password for first-time login
You must log into Passport with your PSA credentials and enroll it in 2FA:
- Go to Passport: https://passport.gatech.edu
- Select a new password (can be seen in the sidebar menu if it doesn't take you straight there.)
- Choose the "Two-Factor Authentication" sidebar menu item
- Follow the guided steps to add a phone and connect it to the Duo app, same as for your regular account
Setting up your browser:
A browser session can only store one SSO login session at a time. To manage a login for your regular account and a login session for your PSA, you can:
- Open a new private browser window for your PSA session (good for one-off/brief sessions), OR
- Use Firefox and install the Multi-Account Containers extension and created dedicated tab containers for each account, OR
- Use two different browsers, OR
- Set up separate local-only browser profiles and switch between the two (available on all browsers)
