eAuthentication Employee Self-Registration
To obtain a USDA eAuthentication employee
credential, employees should go to the
eAuthentication web site, where information
entered by the employee will be compared to
payroll and personnel data at the National
Finance Center (NFC).   Employees should feel
assured that the information entered is handled
through secure channels and is used only to
validate the employees identity against
information already known and stored at NFC. If
all of the data entered by the employee matches
the data held at NFC, the employee will be
electronically issued a USDA eAuthentication
service credential (user ID and password) with
Level 2 assurance.
