A Digital Certificate or Signature Can Be Stored on a Portable RSA Token

You can store a user’s digital certificate and digital signature on an RSA token. The certificates are placed onto a portable USB device. The user can take their USB drive with them wherever they go. This allows the user to access their data and information from any workstation or computer connected to your network. Anytime they need to use their digital certificate or digital signature they access it through the USB drive.

Another Type of RSA Token Device Is a Smart Cart

Another type of RSA token device which can be used to store a user’s digital signature or digital certificate is a smart card. A smart card contains a magnetic strip or embedded chip where the certificates are loaded and stored. In order to use a smart card, each computer or workstation must have a smart card reader attached. The user swipes their card through the smart card reader when they need to use their digital certificate or digital signature.
