Navigating DPS for License Information

Legal Authority: 43 O.S. 139.1

   1. Press Pause‐Break to move past the welcome screen.

The security team will respond with a temporary password.
After selecting DPSCICS from the IMS main menu, type “CESN” from a blank screen to get to the login screen for DHS3.
At your first login, you will be prompted to change your password.
