uilding rich user profiles based on device and behavioral
characteristics. Leveraging dozens of risk factors
in near infinite combinations, it detects and permits
normal behavior, and challenges or blocks anomalous
activity to provide secure access control that exceeds
stand-alone multifactor authentication methods. User
login processes are fast, familiar and simple and yet
still provides secure access control that goes well beyond
stand-alone two- and multi-factor authentication
methods giving organizations a higher level of identity
assurance without compromising user convenience or
productivity. What’s more the risk-based authentication
is tokenless and invisible, greatly aiding in the protection
of government portals and online benefits and
health information and enables tens of thousands of
organizations to maintain various regulations and compliance
needs including HIPPA, FACTA, FISMA, FFIEC,
HSPD-12, CJIS, PCI-DSS and more. RSA SecurID includes
management and administration tools that lower
an organization’s overall TCO and make the solution
easy to manage. Complementing RSA SecurID’s intuitive
browser-based management console, RSA Authentication
Manager’s single-pane view dashboard enables Help
Desk administrators to quickly address common user
inquiries. Also, a customizable Self-Service Console empowers
users to manage their authentication needs and
methods, and various aspects of their token lifecycles,
enabling IT teams to apply time and resources – typically
dedicated to managing a traditional authentication
deployment – to other critical tasks. And, available as a
VMware Virtual Appliance, RSA Authentication Manager
enables customers to leverage existing virtual infrastructures
and accelerate time to value.
