NSF Password RESET (or RESET), allows you to quickly change your NSF local area network (LAN) password from any location, and without involvement from an administrator or technical support. RESET uses multi-factor authentication that requires you to verify your identity by at least two methods, such as using the MS Authenticator app, or by providing a confirmation code received via text, call, or an alternate email.
RESET is available to all NSF staff and contractors. However, you must first enroll to use this service. Enrollment will only take a few minutes using the link to the detailed user guide below.
