Higgs portal interactions can address two open problems in cosmology: dark matter and the baryon asymmetry. In anticipation of the 14 TeV phase of the LHC and the development of a future electron-positron collider, it is timely to delineate the most important scenarios, to identify their LHC and lepton collider signatures, and to determine the extent to which collider searches may probe Higgs portal scenarios in the cosmologically relevant regions of parameter space.
