GovWire

The Defence Gateway (DG) provides members of the wider Defence community with secure access to a selection of Defence web applications from a privately-owned mobile or desktop device.

The functions available depend on the users profile but may include:

• communication and collaboration
• career administration
• education and training administration
• file sharing
• health and wellbeing information
• HR administration
• logistical services
• official email, calendar, tasks and contacts
• reference libraries
• welfare services

DG can be accessed from any web browser and self-registration for a user account is offered to regular and reserve Service personnel, MOD Civil servants, and other Defence staff with a trusted domain email account, for example ending @mod.gov.uk.

Other categories of users, such as Defence contractors, Service family members and members of the armed forces cadet organisations, will need to have their application for a user account sponsored by an existing user.

Users can request support by raising a DG Help Desk ticket.
