You are aware that for the past several years, CBSE in technical collaboration with NeGD has been opening DigiLocker accounts for Class X and XII students every year in advance to provide digital academic documents through its own digital academic repository, “Parinam Manjusha,” immediately after the declaration of result.
In order to further strengthen security & privacy of students’ data, last year CBSE introduced a 6-digit Security PIN based activation for students’ DigiLocker accounts. After activation of DigiLocker accounts, students can access their Digital Academic Documents under the ‘Issued Documents’ section.
The results of Board Exam-2023 will be declared shortly. The student wise Security PIN file is being made available to Schools in their DigiLocker accounts from where schools can download and disseminate Security PIN to individual students.
Schools can follow the below mentioned steps to download the Security PIN file for their students.
Step 1: School will go to the link-: https://cbse.digitallocker.gov.in/public/auth/login and login using the LOC credentials and select ‘Login as School’ from the dropdown as shown below.

After downloading the file, school can share the Security PIN individually with the respective students in a secure manner. Also, a User Manual to guide the students for accessing the DigiLocker is available on the same page. School must download this User Manual and share with the students.
