SecurID Reviews

If you have a compliance requirement for advanced authentication RSA SecurID is a great fit for your organization. If you are looking for a single sign-on solution you'll want to look at something else. RSA SecurID is well suited to verify that the user is who they say they are when they are accessing areas of your network.

Well Suited:

• MFA
• User verification
• Critical access to systems

Less appropriate:

• Email

RSA authentication manager is a one-point control over managing 2FA for VPN, application and wifi security. It is a highly scalable solution and works across the technology stack.

RSA SecurID is great where an agent can be used or for systems that support tiered authentication configuration (LDAP and RSA). For systems that need an authentication mechanism to support Password and Token, RSA SecurID is not right for you.

RSA SecurID is well suited for any situation where a company is looking to implement multifactor authentication, whether the company has an internal push to increase security or are adding multifactor authentication to satisfy a particular compliance framework.

In a tight, online security setting. web portals, etc.

It is well suited for businesses where the organizations have to still serve their employees who are retired from their duties, by providing on-Demand-tokens (least expensive, but not highly reliable) as well as its professionals or remote-employees by providing them with hardware and software tokens (which are highly reliable and maintained).

In a corporate setting I feel this is pretty useful. It's quick and easy to setup and does what its supposed to using as little effort from the user as possible. However there aren't any obvious links to how it works and what it does (through the software itself I mean) which might be more beneficial for someone in a small business setting without the resources and contacts to validate the workings of the software easily.

This has been great for me in a corporate position with travel. I am often working on the road and many times at night need to respond to requests - and this way I can access my files on the network from anywhere where I can connect my computer to the internet. I enjoy the soft token aspect and not having to carry around a card/keychain.

RSA Authentication Manager is well suited for use in two-factor authentication. Haven't really seen a viable competitor.

RSA SecurID is well suited for VPN client two-factor authentication.

In my humble opinion, if you have to protect your local network from intruders and most of your users are not computer savvy it is a must!

Easy to implement and support. Flexible platforms and user-friendly interface. Not a lot of customization is available to customers and response time of support could be better. There are now competing products that utilize new features like facial recognition. Using camera and fingerprint sensors are becoming standard in smartphones so RSA SecureID should offer those as options.

SecurID is pretty much a good app to generate continuously changing secure passwords. I would recommend it to all my colleagues. However, I would like to see more UI/UX improvements that provide a more secured feeling to the app, like limiting the number of times you can insert the access PIN, and providing better error messages; in addition to the ability to reset your PIN from the UI.

RSA SecurID is well suited for any organization that wants to add an additional authentication layer to their existing information systems. The use case where I have used RSA SecurID the most is for authenticating staff members wishing to access our corporate network remotely. RSA SecurID is not suited for smaller organizations that won't have a dedicated support person to administer and troubleshoot the product.

It is well suited for companies that are looking to secure their environment with 2 factor auth, especially for PCI-DSS requirements.
