This page provides access to email and internal systems for our employees.

A few things to note:

• Access to the systems provided below are over a secure connection.
• If your computer doesn't meet the minimum security requirements for the system login, you will not be provided with a login box.
• This facility is not available to all employees. You should speak to your line manager about whether you should have access.

Accessing your email via Outlook Web App (OWA)

Should you need to view your work email from a non DCC piece of equipment you can be given access to log in over a secure internet connection to Webmail. In order to do this your email account needs to be enabled. Webmail allows you to read and reply to email, but any supported email attachments will be read-only.

If you are using a DCC piece of equipment you should log into the Secure Portal below.

Open Outlook Web App (OWA) (opens in a new window)

Accessing other systems via the Secure Portal

You can access Workplace, Dnet and other systems by selecting the appropriate bookmarks once you have logged in through the portal. A virtual private connection (VPN) will also be established by logging in.

Please login to the portal using your normal network username and password.
