Annual User Confirmation

The organization’s Local Organization Administrators (LOA) will have a 90-day period to confirm all the users that need to continue with access and any user not confirmed at the end of the period will lose access. The LOA’s will see an alert when they log in to Florida SHOTS seven days prior to confirmation period beginning and receive an email notification the day before.

Importance of Maintaining Your Organization’s Personnel List
Organizations are responsible for ensuring that only authorized personnel have access to Florida SHOTS. Local Organization Administrators (LOA) need to routinely review the Personnel List to ensure only those users that need access remain active. Any user that is no longer with the organization must have their access terminated upon separation. Users who are no longer part of the organization and are not terminated are still able to access protected information and are able to add or edit information in Florida SHOTS. In addition, in an effort to continue to maintain a secured site, organizations will have an annual User Confirmation period. LOAs will have a 90-day period to confirm all the users that need to continue with access. You can find step-by-step instructions on maintaining your Personnel List and complete the user confirmation HERE. Also available in Spanish.

Florida SHOTS: User Confirmation
Florida SHOTS will introduce the User Confirmation process to improve system security through the review of user access. During the organization’s 90-day User Confirmation period, the Local Organization Administrator (LOA) will confirm that users affiliated with the organization should be granted continued access. Users who are not confirmed at the end of the organization’s 90-day period will no longer have access to Florida SHOTS. Information on how to complete the user confirmation can be found HERE.
Upcoming Local Organization Administrator Update
In our continued efforts to keep Florida SHOTS safe and secure, Florida SHOTS released an update prompting users to review their profile. Users must provide an email address and select the site(s) of the location(s) where they work. Soon, the next phase of this release will be deployed for the Local Organization Administrators (LOA) to confirm those users for their site. When a LOA logs in to Florida SHOTS, they will be provided with a list of system users under their organization who can access Florida SHOTS. To make sure these system users have continued access to Florida SHOTS, the LOA will need to confirm that that the users are still affiliated with the organization and should be granted continued access. This confirmation process is expected to be completed annually during the organization’s enrollment date anniversary.
Maintaining an Accurate Personnel List
Users designated as Local Organization Administrators (LOAs) for the organization’s Florida SHOTS account are responsible for maintaining an accurate and current Personnel List. This includes terminating users who are no longer associated with the organization or no longer need access.
