The Wiki is open to any registered user.

Atomicorp Support Portal

The Atomicorp Support portal allows you to access all your cases, bugs, newsletters and the knowledge base for all Atomicorp products.

The portal allows customers to setup multiple support accounts for their personnel, therefore it uses a different system from the Atomicorp product download manager. Your login credentials for installing ASL will not work to log into the support portal so just select the New user? Please register option under the support portal login screen.

Portal accounts are setup by our support team to ensure that requests for access to an account are valid, and also to set the support parameters for a given customer. Therefore if you request access to the support portal it may take some time for a member of the support team to review the request and set up the account. Also, make sure you fill out your email address with any support portal access request. We can not send you your login credentials without it!

ASL Extended Support Methods

Phone support is also provided to Extended Support contract holders. Please review your contract details for phone numbers and your account representatives information.

If you wish to purchase extended support, please send an email to support@atomicorp.com for details.

Recommended Support Steps

1. Check the ASL FAQ to make sure your issue is not already covered


2. check this Wiki and ASL documentation

ASL Documentation

Atomic Secured Linux

ASL Troubleshooting


3. Check the knowledge base

Atomicorp Knowledge Base

We use the Knowledge Base to document ASL, provide tips and to expand on issues that can not be documented as easily in either this FAQ or in the Wiki.


4. Check the forums

Atomicorp Forums

Your issue may already have been addressed by another user, or we may have responded to it already in the forums.

We do read the forums, but if you use either email or the support portal you will be communicating directly with the entire support team and we always respond to direct customer requests first. The forums are not a direct communication method, so if you issue is urgent please open a case or email support.


5. Open a case in the support portal if you can not find your answer in any of the above

You can open a case directly from ASL by clicking on the support tab in ASL or you can log into the portal directly here:

Atomicorp Support Portal

This is the best way to open a case and its also the fastest.


6. Send an email to support

Email support@atomicorp.com.

We are fanatical about our customers, so please let us know what we can do to help and we'll get right back to you.
