RSA SECURE ID
. . . . The RSA SecurID user authentication system
The RSA SecurID access control system is the 
world's leading two-factor user authentication solution, relied upon by thousands of organizations worldwide to protect valuable network resources from unauthorised intrusion.
Used in conjunction with RSA ACE/Server® software, an RSA SecurID authenticator functions like an ATM card for your network, requiring users to identify themselves with two unique factors - something they know and something they have - before they are granted access. More than 10 million people around the world use RSA SecurID authenticators to securely access VPN and Remote Access applications, Web servers and applications, network operating systems and more.
. . . . Authenticators available in several styles
Authenticators are available in several styles to meet the needs of your end users. Hardware tokens are available in key fob, card and PINPad formats. Software tokens are available for Windows Workstations, Pocket PC, Palm Handhelds, and Nokia, Ericsson and DoCoMo wireless phones.
. . . . simple to use
RSA SecurID authenticators are as simple to use as entering a password, but much more secure. Each end user is assigned an RSA SecurID authenticator which generates a new, unpredictable code every 60 seconds. The user combines this number with a secret PIN to log into protected resources.
. . . . unique symmetric key
Each authenticator has a unique symmetric key that is combined with a powerful algorithm to generate a new code every 60 seconds. Only the RSA ACE/Server software knows which number is valid at that moment in time for that user/authenticator combination.
