EOTSS (Executive Office of Technology Services and Security) is currently in the process of changing how non-state MOSES users access MOSES.

The migration process began October 24, 2022 with selected pilot Career Center locations and will finish within the month of November 2022.

MOSES users will no longer be able to access their current Amazon WorkSpaces (AWS) or any files stored there once the change is made. Personal files cannot be automatically transferred - users must manually transfer any personal files (PDFs, Crystal Reports .rpt files, Word documents, shortcuts, etc.) that are currently stored on their AWS (Desktop, Documents, Downloads, etc.) to a cloud storage platform to preserve and back up those documents outside of the AWS environment to retain access to those files.

After the migration is complete, users will lose access to their current AWS environment and any files stored there will be irretrievable. There will be no file or data recovery option after the transition is made.
