IIU Lab Account:
The Main Account for accessing all the IIU resource. Requested via the service desk (or email to InformaticsLab@cdc.gov) and Created in Active Directory by the IIU Infrastructure team and accessed using Windows Authentication or LDAP.
Usually looks like:
- [5-characters of last name]+[two characters of first name].
- Thus Jonathan IIUUser would be iiuusjo.
- The domain is lab\ or @lab.local (lab\iiuusjo or iiuusjo@lab.local)

JIRA Service Desk / Customer account:
This is the only type of account an IIU customer can create via a web-page, and it only works in JIRA to submit and observe service desk tickets.
Usually looks like an Email Address. Can use JIRA's password reset system.
Gitlab accounts:
This is an account created in Gitlab for users that do not need access to the rest of the IIU space. Several of these were created for users interested in the Hackathon near then end of May 2017.
They usually look like an email address but usually match the requested of the user. Can use Gitlab's Password Reset System.
