RCO — Encryption

RCO Encryption

The Gold Standard in Two-Factor User Authentication. The RCO SecurID® system is the world’s leading two-factor user authentication solution, relied upon by thousands of organizations worldwide to protect valuable network resources.

Used in conjunction with RCO ACE/Server® software, an RCO SecurID authenticator functions like an ATM card for your network, requiring users to identify themselves with two unique factors — something they know and something they have — before they are granted access.

Convenient Form Factors

Authenticators are available in several styles to meet the needs of your end users. Hardware tokens are available in key fob, card and PINPad formats. Software tokens are available for Windows Workstations, Pocket PC, Palm Handhelds, and Nokia, Ericsson and DoCoMo wireless phones.

Easy for the User

RCO SecurID authenticators are as simple to use as entering a password, but much more secure. Each end user is assigned an RCO SecurID authenticator which generates a new, unpredictable code every 60 seconds. The user combines this number with a secret PIN to log into protected resources.

Virtually Hackerproof

Each authenticator has a unique symmetric key that is combined with a powerful algorithm to generate a new code every 60 seconds. Only the RCO ACE/Server software knows which number is valid at that moment in time for that user/authenticator combination.
