Cardholder Data
University and system units may request access to our data, subject to our approval. Student organizations and external entities are not permitted to access our data. We require all units that want to access this data to establish a Data Security Administrator (DSA) and abide by our Data Security Terms and Conditions. Our Data Access page outlines how to establish a new DSA and how DSA assignments are renewed.
i-card Programs' database contains all UINs created for the University of Illinois System. We also retain ID card data. For card service and records management purposes, we have basic employee and student data as well as NetIDs. This data can be made available by several methods, such as:
- Secure web-based search/query applications
- Open Database Connectivity access
- Data exports
We also can provide a card swipe application (CSA) that can be used for tracking attendance for an office or event. Your unit provides and programs the card swipe reader and connects it to a PC or laptop. With this setup, you then gain access to self-serve attendance reports. Do not purchase a card reader before contacting our Help Desk. We will provide a model recommendation and technical requirement details.
