Access to the CBS Microdata Environment

To log in to the CBS Microdata Environment, you need to install the VPN Client and Omnissa Horizon Client. You can find the instructions for installing the VPN at the bottom of the page: Installation of FortiVPN client.

If you are authorised, you can log in to the CBS Microdata Environment via the Omnissa Horizon Client using your login credentials, once a VPN connection has been established. The steps for this process are outlined on the page: Logging into the CBS Microdata Environment.

Please note that only Mac and Windows systems can establish a VPN connection with CBS. If your company device is configured to block access to CBS, you will need to use a separate, standalone PC or laptop to create a secure connection to CBS.

After you have reviewed the instructions, if you have any questions please first check the FAQ Microdata Environment document at the bottom of the page. If your question is not answered there, you can contact Microdata Services for assistance.
