Password Complexity

Passwords must be between 8 and 20 characters in length and must contain 3 of 4 criteria.

Password Recycling

The previous 24 passwords may not be used. If you enter one of the previous 24 passwords this message appears:

“Validation Error: Password you are attempting to save has been used previously. Please re-enter a new password.”

Password Validation

If you do not enter VIIS every 60 days your account will move to ‘disabled’ status. Every 90 days your password will expire and it must be updated.

You have 10 opportunities to enter the correct password, user name, or organization code combination. After the tenth incorrect attempt you will be locked out of VIIS for 15 minutes.

The message:

“You have entered the incorrect Organization Code or password. Please wait 15 minutes before reattempting. If you have forgotten your log-in information or cannot access your account for any reason, contact your VIIS administrator. If you are the administrator, please contact the help desk at 1-866-375-9795 or viis_helpdesk@vdh.virginia.gov” will appear on the screen.”

Once you have been authenticated by the system you will be taken to one of three places:

  1. If you only have one organization you will be automatically logged into the VIIS as the organization.

  2. If you have more than one organization you will see a list of your organizations you have access to. Click on the organization you wish to access to enter VIIS.

  3. To log out of the Virginia Immunization Information System you can click the Logout link from any screen.
