 ====== Account Management System (AMS) ======
-FIXME
+HfG members are enrolled in an identity management (IdM) system providing coherent authentication and authorization for a number of online services as well as a few self-service facilities:
+  - Passwörter: Change passwords
+  - E-Mailverteiler: Manage mailing lists
+At least one username is assigned per person, which together with the password of the corresponding service class serves as login credential for the connected services.
+===== Accessing AMS self-service =====
+The one and only URL to access AMS is https://accounts.hfg-karlsruhe.de.
+:!: Enter your **full name to log in**. All first and last names must match the spelling of your official HfG registration, otherwise login will fail.
+Avoid reusing passwords. We recommend using a password manager, enabling you to automatically generate and save strong passwords unique to each service.
