  2. Introduction • The Shell Client for Contractors service has been designed to enable Shell contractors to make use of their own hardware and software when accessing Shell resources both via the internet and whilst inside Shell offices • The service provides a web based mechanism using SSL/VPN technology to contractors accessing applications and supporting Shell from non-GI platforms • This web based access will allow contractors to access and run Shell web and Win 32 applications that do not require a Shell internal IP address to be issued. • Service operationalised 1st April 2009. Project team to resolving service readiness gaps to complete end August 2009.

  3. C4C vs GI-D for Contractors - 1 What is different from a service standpoint? • Contractors will access the Shell environment via their own contractor provided PC. • Shell will not provide the client hardware. • Shell helpdesk support will cover access technology (including the token), network printers and fileshares. • Initially, helpdesk support will be in English only. • Only Shell custom applications are supported by Shell and this will be carried out via the existing support desks; e.g. Livelink; etc. • Pre-arranged by the Businesses that request access • Licensing for Commercial off the shelf (COTS) software is the responsibility of the contractor/contractor’s company to procure. • Users are not provided with storage or mailbox within the Shell environment.

  4. C4C vs GI-D for Contractors - 2 • What is different from a technical standpoint? • Contractors will not get the Shell desktop image (GI-D) • Some users may see a Secure Virtual Workspace (SVW); • This will depend on the type of contract agreed. • ‘Fully Trusted’ Third Parties will not require SVW • Contractors will connect to a web portal over the internet via standard browsers either: • externally via a local ISP or their corporate LAN • internally via Shell wireless LAN, restricted VLAN or Shell LAN (subject to Shell security approval) • Authentication is done via one time password (OTP) from a Digipass token. • Contractors name format in the GAL will be: • surname (c), firstname initials shellco-shellloc • e.g. Aleck (C), Robert SITI-ITIPEA • this to make it easier to identify the user as a contractor with an external email address, but to allow them to fit in to their normal role (with normal company/reference indicator)

  5. C4C vs GI-D for Contractors - 3 • What is different from a technical standpoint? cont’d • “Untrusted” third parties will have access only to the specific Shell Win32/Web resources that they require • “Trusted” third parties have unrestricted SWW/network access • Shell bespoke Win32 applications will be delivered over the portal and Contractors must use their own IT support for installation of these applications. • Information on configuring the applications for use with Shell will be made available through the web • COTS Win32 applications that provide access to Shell data must be installed and supported by the contractors’ company (e.g. MS Office). Shell will provide configuration information for these. • Contractors should be able to use Shell network printers

  6. Hardware and Operating Systems • The C4C service will allow hardware (desktop or laptop) with the following supported operating systems, to access the Shell resources:

  7. Software Requirements - 1 • The software components required for this service on the contractor’s PC : • Internet browsers; • Up to date copies of AntiVirus and AntiSpyware; • Personal Firewall; • Any standard or customized Win32 applications; • Java • Contractors will be asked to login from a sign-in page before being granted access to their Shell resources. • C4C users require local admin account on their PC • The following Internet browsers are supported. • Internet Explorer 7.0, 6.0 • Firefox 2.0 • Links to Shell web applications will be available via a web portal.

  8. Software Requirements - 2 • Win32 applications that are required, such as Peregrine E2E ServiceCenter, must be installed on the PC before the customer accesses the SSL/VPN appliance. • It is the responsibility of the contractor /contractor’s company to procure, install and support any commercial off the shelf (COTS) software required. • Shell, via the C4C portal, will only provide access to the installer of customized Shell software.

  9. Single Sign on for Applications • Single Sign On has been enabled for Shell applications that require authentication. • However, due to technical limitations, the application remediation team will undertake to resolve those issues. • If a Website prompts for a username and password, it is the equivalent if Internet Explorer popping up and means that the site owner hasn’t granted the user access to the site.

  10. Full Documentation C4C Getting Started with C4C This section tells Focal Points how to get started using C4C. First, it goes through the things that you need to read to understand the various components that make up the service, then it explains the procedures that you must follow to actually use the service components.

  11. Processes of C4C

  12. Processes of C4C Step 1 : Understand the users of C4C Step 2 : Identify the resources required for the contractors Step 3 : Register the contractors company (Assignment by Business TPA Focal Point) Step 4 : Register resources for contractors Step 5 : Build an archetype Step 6 : Creation of C4C user accounts Step 7 : Procurement of C4C Token Step 8 : C4C Helpdesk Information

Ineligible users • It is important to note that the following are not eligible for registration on this service: • Shell Employees • People in or nationals of GEC (General Embargoed Countries) or HRC (Highly Restricted Countries) • Those who need to access data classified above “confidential” • Users where the service is prohibited by law (for example, where use of encryption is not allowed) • People who need access to Shell GI-D network for “business critical” operations. This includes extensive operational support personnel from contractor. Eg. Firewall team that requires AD and server access and Software Programmers/Developers that require access to various Shell databases and servers. • B. Eligible users • Any Shell Contractor is eligible, subject to constraints listed above and elsewhere on these pages. All Shell contractors have to be legally binded before subscribing to C4C service. • A Shell contractor company that is legally binded has: • Signed up to the C4C specific contractual clauses (available elsewhere on these pages which can be found on the company registration page of the C4C service website: • http://sww.shell.com/it/consumer/desktop/products_services/optional/remote_access/client_for_contractors/companies.html • Provided their sponsor company (the contract holder in Shell) with a satisfactory level of assurance that they’re adhering to the contractual clause.

Users of C4C

  14. Area Support for Contractors Network Shell will provide support and service guarantees only for the private Shell owned and managed network as long as users have the access permission . C4C users are required to ensure that they have internet access to establish the connection. Physical client Shell will not support the contractors’ clients. They will need to have their own patch management and software upgrade management mechanisms, and ensure that their clients are installed with anti-spyware, anti-virus and Personal firewall with the latest updated definition that is governed by Juniper ESAP version. Connection Shell will support users connecting to the SSL/VPN gateway, including the OTP token provided that the contractor machine is installed with Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP32-Bit SP2 or Windows Vista 32-Bit SP1 OS. Application Support for COTS[1] applications Shell will not provide & support any COTS (Common Off the Shelf) applications accessed through the service.
