Overview
The below lists accounts needed to access the various Cybersecurity – related sites / applications:
MCW / (HCS) Domain Accounts
SPO. Since ICC-CY has migrated to SharePoint online, MCW accounts are no longer required for SPO access, therefore, new accounts requests are no longer necessary. However, users require a valid O365 Account, see below.
MCCAST -NIPR. MCW accounts requests for MCCAST are still being accepted – – a government representative with existing and valid user account must submit on behalf of new user. Contact EIS if you have no one to submit on your behalf. See contact information below. The process has not changed” - be sure to select "MCCAST" for the drop down. See below for additional requirements regarding MCCAST access.
NOTE: The Hybrid Cloud Services (HCS) manage this process - contact them for questions regarding this process @ Phone: 816-705-4970 or email the HCS Watch Officer
MCCAST-SIPR. There is no online request for this except for the "normal" SIPR account request via Remedy. Get with your local ISC to request an account as the MCEN SIPR access is on the MCW domain. Non-USMC users may obtain a USMC SIPR account, but must be sponsored by a USMC representative. Please work through your USMC representative to start the process via the Enterprise Help Desk.
Microsoft Office 365 Account
SPO. The Marine Corps migrated to Office 365 in 2021 and now requires valid and current Office 365 accounts for access.
