disciplines of access, governance, lifecycle and identity assurance
to help organizations address the identity needs of the modern

RSA CONFERENCE
RSA, The Security Division of EMC (NYSE: EMC), today unveiled
its RSA SecurID Suite, which is a comprehensive identity solution
that combines the separate disciplines of access, governance,
lifecycle and identity assurance, working together in harmony.
As a result, organizations can leverage one platform for
strong control and visibility, mitigating security and identity
risk and enabling business productivity.
The RSA SecurID Suite includes RSA SecurID Access, including the
traditional RSA SecurID two-factor authenticators, RSA®
Identity Governance and RSA® Identity Lifecycle. It is
designed to provide identity governance and management capabilities
for regular or privileged users across the identity lifecycle. It
also helps solve identity-related challenges by providing secure
and convenient access controls, including multifactor
authentication and single sign-on (SSO) to ensure that users are
who they say they are. In addition, the Suite gives organizations
insights and tools to comply with regulations and organizational
policies, and streamline user access request and delivery to reduce
identity-related risk and minimize the friction that users
face.
As an integral part of the RSA SecurID Suite, RSA SecurID Access
now offers next-generation identity assurance and additional
multifactor authentication to any resource on-premise or in the
cloud. By providing information around application sensitivity and
user attributes to drive context-based identity assurance, RSA
SecurID Access offers the most actionable insights into identities
and access so administrators can make informed choices.
With RSA SecurID Access users are able to select from a broad
range of next-generation mobile-based authentication methods such
as EyePrint ID™ technology, TouchID® fingerprint
identity sensor verification and tap or shake so that
administrators ensure strong authentication while providing
convenience for their users. Additionally, users can leverage
traditional RSA SecurID hardware and software tokens that access a
full range of applications and resources, and the RSA SecurID Suite
is also engineered to support FIDO based authenticators. By
offering a wide range of authentication methods, organizations are
enabled to control access based context or risk.
RSA SecurID Access customers can protect any resource on-premise
or in the cloud. With context-based identity assurance, business
stakeholders and security teams can align access policies with
their business agility needs and risk profile.
According to Gartner, "With identity a sustaining element of
digital business, IAM is a critical obligation for business
leaders, security and risk professionals, and IT staff. With the
advent of digital business, it becomes even more important that IAM
initiatives across the organization be united within a single
program."1
