In order to perform some basic tasks that use NAS web applications, such as changing your NAS password or logging into the myNAS portal, you must authenticate to NASA's Access Launchpad using your NASA Smartcard or RSA SecurID token.

Using Your NASA Smartcard

This is Launchpad's default option. Make sure Smartcard (preferred) is selected, insert your NASA smartcard into your workstation's card reader, and click Smartcard Log In, as shown below. Enter your PIN when prompted.

Using Your RSA SecurID Token

Select the RSA Token option, provide your Agency User ID, and enter your passcode, as shown below.

If you have an RSA SecurID fob, your passcode is your PIN + the token code displayed on the fob. If you have a soft token, enter your PIN in the RSA SecurID app to get the token code, then enter only the token code in the PIN + Tokencode field.

Once you are authenticated to Launchpad, you will be connected to the NAS password change form, the myNAS web portal, or another NAS web application to complete your task.
