PaNOSC
Aligned with PaNOSC
Supporting photon and neutron services as part of the PaNOSC service landscape.
Trusted access for European photon and neutron science
One identity for facilities, data and EOSC-connected services.
UmbrellaID helps researchers use one community identity to access participating photon and neutron facilities, user-office services, proposal tools, data catalogues and future PaNOSC/EOSC workflows.
- Link once to local facility identities
- Designed for the Photon & Neutron community

EOSC
Connected to EOSC
Designed to interoperate with access patterns used across the European Open Science Cloud.
myID
Interoperable through MyAccessID
Positioned for standards-based identity and trust across EOSC-connected services.
For researchers
Access participating facilities with less account friction.
Create your UmbrellaID, link it to a participating facility account, and use that connection whenever a service supports UmbrellaID sign-in.
Create your UmbrellaID
Register once using your preferred identity route and keep a stable community identity for PaN science.
Link a facility account
Connect your UmbrellaID to local accounts at participating facilities when needed.
Use connected services
Access user offices, proposal systems, remote services and data tools where UmbrellaID is enabled.
