An RSA Token Can Be Used on Different Types of Devices

The types of devices you use with your RSA token will depend on the size of your organization. Smaller business may incorporate the token directly onto their employees’ ID cards. This set up will require a smart card reader at each of your computer terminals. A smart card set up is not always ideal for larger businesses. However, these organizations can take advantage of placing the token onto an external and portable USB drive.

Using a RSA Token Is Ideal for Organizations Which Share Computers

The purpose of a RSA token is to provide added security to your systems, resources and application. In some work environments, it is possible to have multiple users sharing the same computers. This is common when your company operates 24 hours a day. By using a token, you can set access rights for each individual on the token device, rather than having to worry about configuring the computer. Using tokens also allows your users to use any computer terminal in your organization.
