SecurID Information

A 9x Production

I'm writing this file to clear up some of the rumors about SecurID. It is
|
|||
|
|
correct to the best of my ability, and much of the information has been
|
|||
|
|
verified by the makers of SecurID.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
SecurID is made by Security Dynamics, Inc. in Cambridge, Massachusetts, who
|
|||
|
|
have nine patents for it. I have seen it used on UNIX's, by banks, RBOC's and
|
|||
|
|
many others. The system must have SecurID software (starting at $1950)
|
|||
|
|
installed. Every user must have a SecurID card, which is a tiny credit card
|
|||
|
|
sized computer ($34 each). The middle of the card has SecurID printed on it,
|
|||
|
|
and in the top-right corner the users current 6-digit password is displayed.
|
|||
|
|
Inside the card is a lithium battery and a clock chip which picks the new
|
|||
|
|
password every minute from a time algorithm. The SecurID card must be
|
|||
|
|
synchronized with the system using it. On some systems it must be
|
|||
|
|
synchronized daily. When the user has entered the proper user-id on the
|
|||
|
|
system, they will be prompted for their SecurID password. SecurID always
|
|||
|
|
identifies itself. Security Dynamics claims there has never been a reported
|
|||
|
|
incident of anyone cracking the SecurID algorithm, contrary to hacker
|
|||
|
|
folklore. SecurID is becoming more and more popular, because it is extremely
|
|||
|
|
secure, easier to use than challenge-response security systems, and cheaper
|
|||
|
|
than other security systems such as key-modems and others. NYNEX has begun to
|
|||
|
|
use SecurID to protect its Datakit PSN (and dialups), and I'm sure we'll see
|
|||
|
|
more and more companies using SecurID in the future to protect their sensitive
|
|||
|
|
data. What can we do about it? Not much. Even if you manage to steal a
|
|||
|
|
SecurID card, it is replaced almost immediately. Just hope you can find
|
|||
|
|
another way into the system, or be lucky enough to figure out the algorithm.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We are sorry we dont have alot more info on SecureID, but this was all
|
|||
|
|
the information we could obtain from Security Dynamics, Inc.
