RSA SecurID Software Token 4.1 Administrator’s Guide

42 3: Provisioning Software Tokens

With RSA Authentication Manager 7.1 and RSA SecurID Appliance 3.0, you can

issue two types of software tokens that require a PIN: PINPad-style tokens and

fob-style tokens. Each token type offers strong two-factor authentication assurance.

The SecurID desktop application recognizes the installed token type and displays

appropriate screens.

Note: If you are making a transition from hardware tokens to software tokens, and you

are using RSA Authentication Manager 7.1, you might want to issue fob-style

software tokens, which resemble the user experience with fob-style hardware tokens,

such as the SID700. For more information, see “Fob-Style Software Tokens

” on

page 43.

PINPad-Style Software Tokens

Note: All supported versions of Authentication Manager support PINPad-style

software tokens.

With PINPad-style software tokens, the user enters his or her SecurID PIN into the

SecurID desktop application to generate a one-time password (OTP), or passcode. To

authenticate, the user enters his or her user name and the OTP into the application that

is protected by SecurID (for example, a VPN client application).

This authentication experience is similar to using an RSA SecurID PINPad-style

hardware token, such as the SD520, where the user enters the PIN on the token’s

numeric keypad and then enters the displayed OTP (passcode) in the protected

resource. PINPad-style software tokens used with the application require a numeric

PIN of 4 to 8 digits.

The following figure shows the user authentication experience.
