RSA SecurIDp Authenticators - CryptoTech

1 The RSA SecurID authentication system is relied upon bythousands of organizations worldwide to protect valuablenetwork resources. Used in conjunction with RSA authentication manager , an RSA SecurID authenticatorrequires users to identify themselves with two uniquefactors something they know and something they have before they are granted access. RSA SecurIDpAuthenticatorsThe gold standard in two-factor authenticationMillions of people use RSA SecurID Authenticators tosecurely access virtual private networks (VPNs), wirelessaccess points, remote access firewalls, web applications andnetwork operating systems.

2 Organizations seeking tovalidate specific financial transactions via transactionsigning can also leverage the most recent addition to theRSA SecurID hardware family, the SID900 TransactionSigning authenticator . The system is easy to use andmanage, and results in centrally enforced security thatprovides a faster return-on-investment in most SecurID Authenticators help organizations protectprivate information and manage the identities of people,devices and applications exchanging that information. Theyare designed to fit seamlessly into the existing e-businessinfrastructures of our approximately 20,000 customersworldwide.

3 With a 20-year history of outstandingperformance and innovation, RSA s authentication solutionsremain an industry standard for organizations looking toprotect their key business data assets. RSA SecurIDauthenticators provide organizations with: Strong network security, Security made easy, Flexible security solutions, Protection of infrastructure investments, Transaction signing capabilities, The integrity and assurance of industry standards and A wide variety of form factors and a Glance One of the most widely used authenticator solutions Easy-to-use, zero footprint options Secures internal and remote network access Available in hardware and software token form factors Interoperable with most leading remote accessservers, VPNs.

4 Firewalls and web servers Transaction-signing capabilities for sensitive financial transactionsProtection of Infrastructure InvestmentsThrough the RSA SecurID Ready program, the products ofmore than 200 leading vendors of firewalls, remote accessservers and VPNs support RSA SecurID authentication rightout of the box. In addition, RSA authentication Agentsoftware is available to allow the addition of two-factorauthentication to network operating systems andapplications, including Windows operating environmentsand web-based applications.

5 This high level ofinteroperability allows administrators to protect initialauthentication investments and is unmatched in theindustry. Transaction Signing CapabilitiesRSA s new transaction signing authenticator is compatiblewith RSA SecurID authentication Engine, a lightweight andeasy-to-implement authentication software solution that caneasily integrate directlyinto an organization s home-grown,externally facing applications. The RSA SecurID Authen-tication Engine is designed to fit into an organization sexisting infrastructure and will simply validate a user sidentity using a passcode.

6 It will also validate the user s signature when presented with a response value by a userand validate that signature against the transaction Integrity and Assurance of Industry StandardsRSA SecurID Authenticators have been designed to takeadvantage of the industry-standard Advanced EncryptionStandard (AES) algorithm. Customers enjoy the integrityand assurance of quality provided by reliance on the Wide Variety of Form Factors and OptionsThe RSA SecurID system is one of the world s leading two-factor user authentication solutions.

7 With the broadestrange of easy-to-use form factors, there are RSA SecurIDauthenticators available to suit the requirements of everyorganization. RSA offers both hardware and softwareauthenticators that provide strong authentication access tocorporate assets using familiar devices that users alreadyhave. RSA SecurID tokens also support qualified smartcards or USB Network SecurityEach RSA SecurID authenticator has a unique symmetric keythat is combined with a powerful algorithm to generate anew code every 60 seconds. Because the number isunpredictable and dynamic, it would be extremely difficultfor a hacker to guess the correct number at any given technology synchronizes each authenticator withthe security server, ensuring a high level of security.

8 Thisprotection is priceless when the risk of exposing criticalinformation resources is Made EasyRSA SecurID Authenticators are as simple to use as enteringa password, but much more secure. Each end user isassigned an RSA SecurID authenticator that generates a one-time-use code. When logging on, the user simply entersthis number plus a secret Personal Identification Number(PIN) to be successfully authenticated. As an added benefit,RSA SecurID hardware tokens are pre-programmed to be fullyfunctional upon receipt. Administrators quickly find that theRSA SecurID solution can be much less expensive to managethan Security SolutionsThe RSA SecurID solution can allow organizations to drivedown the total cost of ownership of many applications.

9 RSAS ecurID Authenticators can be used by employees, businesspartners and customers. Whether they require access toremote access servers, VPNs, email, wireless networks,network operating systems, intranets, extranets, web serversor other information or applications hosted on UNIX/Linuxservers or Microsoft Windows networks, RSA SecurIDauthentication helps to ensure that only authorized usersare allowed entry to the Product Data SheetRSA SecurID SD200 RSA SecurID SD520 RSA SecurID SID700 RSA SecurID SID800 RSA SecurID SD600 RSA SecurID SID900 TransactionSigning authenticator .

10 The PIN pad enables implementa-tion of the digital signing RSA SecurID SD520 PINpad model resembles the SD200but has a PIN pad feature that enables users to encrypt theirpasscode for a higher level of RSA SecurID SD600 is a standard-sized key fob thatconnects easily to any key ring and fits into a user s pocketor small carrying RSA SecurID SID700 is a smaller key fob model that isvery convenient for the end RSA SecurID SID800 offers the one-time password functionality of the other hardware Authenticators as well asadded functionality through a built-in USB connector andsmart chip.
