Here at BYU-OIT, we deploy our software in AWS. Your AWS account will automatically be created for you the day after you are hired and added to the Group Reference Object (GRO) Group for the organization. To see if your account has been created, go to: https://awslogin.byu.edu Sign in with your BYU NetID and your password; it will require DUO Authentication.
