First of all, I'm assuming that your system is set up to use Windows authentication (and not SAML SSO based authentication). If that assumption is wrong then the following comments will be off the mark.
If your credentials are not being accepted here then that suggests that the IIS process the Analytics (IBM Cognos) application is running under is not set up to authenticate or trust your credentials for some reason. I always find IIS and Windows authentication topics somewhat scary and mystical (!), but I would be poking around in the authentication configuration settings that are on the Cognos virtual directory in IIS. For example:
Check Windows and/or Basic Authentication is enabled as per how you expect it to be configured
Check the "Provider" settings on the Windows Authentication settings in IIS - I'm not sure what settings may be correct/appropriate for your environment, but try different configurations (you're not going to break it more than it is broken already!)
