Key Facts

  • Two-factor authentication provides stronger network security than password alone.
  • RSA SecurID is relied upon by thousands of organizations, and has 15 year track record with no reported security breaches.
  • Optionally available with Backstop, Backstop PM, and InvestorBridge.

RSA SID700 SecureID Token SecurID SID700 Backstop products use the RSA SecurID SID700, a small key fob that is very convenient for the end user.

RSA SecurID

Backstop offers optional RSA SecurID two-factor authentication tokens, for the utmost in online security.

Two-factor Authentication

The RSA SecurID® authentication system is relied upon by thousands of organizations worldwide to protect valuable network resources. The RSA SecurID authenticator requires users to identify themselves with two unique factors-something they know and something they have-before they are granted access.

Each RSA SecurID authenticator has a unique symmetric key that is combined with a powerful algorithm to generate a new code every 60 seconds. Because the number is unpredictable and dynamic, it would be extremely difficult for a hacker to guess the correct number at any given time.

Patented technology synchronizes each authenticator with the security server, ensuring a very high level of security. In fact, RSA SecurID has a track record of 15 years with no reported security breaches.

Security Made Easy

RSA SecurID authenticators are as simple to use as entering a password, but much more secure. Each end user is assigned a compact, keychain style, RSA SecurID authenticator that generates a one-time-use code. When logging on, the user simply enters this number plus a secret Personal Identification Number (PIN) to be successfully authenticated.

Availability

RSA SecurID authenticators are optionally available for all Backstop Solutions Group applications, including Backstop, Backstop PM, and InvestorBridge. They can be purchased along with the initial software license, or added on to an existing implementation at a later date.
