General Questions

This section includes general questions related to the myRSA portal.

 

What is myRSA?

The myRSA portal is the web platform where customers can manage their RSA assets, including licenses and software downloads for their RSA products and solutions.  The platform was initially released on February 13th, 2019 and was announced by Doug Howard‌, VP of Global Services & IT Transformation in his blog post entitled https://community.rsa.com/community/customers/blog/2019/02/11/myrsa-coming-soon-to-improve-your-rsa-experienceon RSA Link.

 

What happened to RSA Download Central?

The myRSA portal has replaced RSA Download Central as the primary web platform for managing your RSA assets.  As such, RSA Download Central has been decommissioned and attempting to navigate to it will redirect you to the myRSA portal.

 

Where can I find the myRSA portal?

You can navigate directly to the myRSA portal using the my.rsa.com URL in your web browser.

 

Can I see a demonstration of the website?

Yes, you can watch the Video Link : 33726‌ video which provides a full demonstration of accessing and navigating the myRSA portal.

Accessing the Portal

This section includes questions related to accessing the myRSA portal.

 

Who has the ability to access the portal?

Unlike many of the restricted areas on RSA Link that are accessible by customers with active maintenance contracts, the majority of the myRSA portal is restricted to only the users who are listed as contacts on the purchase order for one or more of their RSA products, as well as those who have been explicitly granted access.

 

The exception to this restricted access is the Products section, which is accessible to customers and partners with active maintenance contracts associated with their accounts, similar to the restricted product downloads sections on RSA Link.

 

How will I know when I have access?

When an order is processed, if you are listed as a contact then you will receive an email welcoming you to the myRSA portal.  You will also receive a second email that contains the product license serial number for your product.  Upon receiving these two emails you will have the ability to log in to the portal.

 

Are my login credentials different than my RSA Link account?

No, if you already have an RSA Link account then you will use the same credentials to log in to the myRSA portal.

 

Will I have the same access in myRSA as I did when utilizing RSA Download Central?

Yes, you will have access to the same assets, licenses and software downloads that were available to you in RSA Download Central.

 

What if I don't have an RSA Link account?

If you are a new customer or haven't yet registered for RSA Link or utilized RSA Download Central then, assuming you are listed as a contact on the purchase order for your product, the introductory email will include your Login ID and a temporary password, which you will be prompted to change upon logging in.

 

Alternatively, you can register for an RSA Link account at https://community.rsa.com/register by following the instructions in this video.

 

If I have access to the RSA Case Management portal does this mean I also have access to myRSA?

In order to have full access to the myRSA portal you will need to have been listed as a contact on the purchase order for your RSA product(s) or explicitly granted access.  Having access to the RSA Case Management portal alone does not equate to having full access to myRSA. 

 

However, you will still have the ability in most situations to access software downloads on the Products page within the myRSA portal or via the Version Upgrades portal, which can be accessed via the Upgrades tab within the RSA Case Management portal.

 

How do I request access to the myRSA portal?

If you need to obtain full access to the myRSA portal on behalf of your company but were not listed as a contact on the purchase order for your product then you will need to contact RSA Support to request access.  If you already have an RSA Link account with access to the RSA Case Management portal then this can be done by clicking on the Create Case tab and then selecting the Access Requests for License or Token Media option in the I need assistance with field.

How do I reset the password for my account?

You can find instructions for resetting your password in the following knowledge base article:  000035225 - How do I reset the password for my RSA Link account? 

 

What is On-Demand Authentication and do I need to set it up?

On-Demand Authentication (ODA) is one of the methods of step-up authentication that is offered when setting up your RSA Link and myRSA account. You can find out more about this authentication method and how it applies to RSA Link and myRSA on the RSA Link FAQ page.

 

Can I set up security questions if I only set up On-Demand Authentication when I first registered?

Yes, you can always go back and set up security questions as an additional step-up authentication method by following the instructions in this article:  000036256 - How can I set up security questions for my RSA Link account? 

 

What if I can't remember the answers to my security questions?

If you cannot remember the answers to your security questions then you will need to contact RSA Support who will be able to reset them for you. After this has been performed you can set up new questions and answers by following the instructions in the knowledge base article here.

 

What should I do if I encounter issues with logging in, registering, or accessing content?

If you encounter any issues with logging in, registering for an account, or accessing content such as product downloads, you should first reference the RSA Link Knowledge Base, which addresses many of the more common issues. If you need further assistance, please contact RSA Support.
