SecurID SID800, 5 years, 250 Pack, USB A, 21g
The RSA SecurID SID800 authenticator is a multi-function device that combines the industry
proven features of the world leading RSA SecurID hardware authenticator with a smart chip
based on Sun Java technology, packaged together in a more convenient USB form factor. This
single authenticator is designed to generate time synchronous one-time-passwords (OTP) for
anytime, anywhere access, support PKI for authentication, digital signatures and file encryption
and securely store password information; making it an ideal choice for a wide range of
environments where diverse system, application and customer needs exist.
PORTABLE AND EASY TO USE
The RSA SecurID SID800 authenticator, which easily connects to any key ring, displays a unique
code that changes every 60 seconds. The device can be used either disconnected or connected to
the USB port. When disconnected, the user simply reads the token code from the authenticator’s
display and types their corresponding passcode (PIN + token code) into the application dialogue
box as required. In connected mode, the RSA SecurID SID800 authenticator is enabled for
automatic token code entry allowing applications to programmatically access token codes directly
off the device, eliminating the need for the user to type their code.
FLEXIBLE—SUPPORTS MULTIPLE CREDENTIAL TYPES, FUTURE APPLICATIONS
Customers looking for the ability to choose the optimum credential type for their specific
applications will appreciate the flexibility of the RSA SecurID SID800 authenticator. In addition to
generating RSA SecurID one-time-passwords, it is capable of storing multiple X.509 digital
certificates which enable authentication, digital signature and file encryption applications.
The device can also store several userID and static password combinations for logon to password
enabled applications. Support for mixed credential types enables the device to be used for more
applications, thus increasing its value to the user.The on-board smart chip based on Sun Java technology and operating system also supports post issuance of applications and enhancements, providing future flexibility to optimize the investment.
INTEROPERATES WITH MICROSOFT® WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEM, RSA SIGN-ON MANAGER AND MORE
The RSA SecurID SID800 authenticator supports three methods of logging into Microsoft Windows. First, the device can be used in conjunction with RSA SecurID for Microsoft Windows, leveraging the investment in RSA SecurID technology and enabling a common strong authentication experience for end users inside and outside the enterprise. Second, a hardened digital certificate can be created using the RSA SecurID SID800 authenticator and used for native Microsoft Windows login and, lastly, the manual entry of usernames and passwords can be eliminated by storing them on the device. RSA Sign-On Manager, an enterprise single sign-on solution, offers its users the advantage of logging in once to seamlessly gain access to multiple applications. The RSA SecurID
SID800 authenticator can provide the logon credentials for RSA Sign-On Manager, offering the user strong security and convenience. RSA SecurID technology is integrated with over 300 certified
third-party applications. This helps to lower deployment costs by providing the assurance that important applications are “RSA SecurID Ready”.
SIMPLIFIED CREDENTIAL MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE
The RSA Authenticator Utility, client software supplied with the authenticator, enables the USB connected functions for RSA SecurID technology one-time-password auto entry, digital certificate use and smart card management. It also detects password change requests and automatically
updates the password store. The software utility was designed to conform to Microsoft’s installer framework (MSI) and Systems Management Server (SMS) for simplified application
deployment, installation and update.
