Editorial Review

Our take on RSA Security

RSA Security represents one of cybersecurity's most recognized brands, founded in 1982 and named after the RSA encryption algorithm developed by its founders. Now headquartered in Bedford, Massachusetts, RSA has evolved from its cryptography roots through multiple ownership transitions (currently Symphony Technology Group) to focus on identity and risk management. The company is best known for SecurID, one of the market's first widely-deployed multi-factor authentication solutions.

RSA's current product portfolio centers on identity governance and lifecycle, access management, and fraud and risk intelligence. The RSA SecurID suite provides multi-factor authentication using hardware and software tokens. Their Identity Governance and Lifecycle solution helps organizations manage identity provisioning, access certification, and segregation of duties. RSA Fraud and Risk Intelligence leverages behavioral analytics and threat intelligence to detect account compromise and fraudulent transactions.

The company differentiates through long-standing customer relationships and extensive deployment experience in large enterprises and government agencies. RSA Conference, the company's annual security event, remains one of the industry's premier gatherings. However, RSA has faced challenges including the 2011 breach that compromised SecurID seed data and competitive pressure from cloud-native identity providers. Recent ownership changes have brought renewed investment in platform modernization.

For enterprises with existing RSA deployments or requiring robust identity governance capabilities, RSA delivers proven technology backed by decades of experience. Their fraud prevention capabilities serve financial services particularly well. Best suited for large enterprises, particularly in financial services and government, with complex identity management requirements and potentially existing RSA infrastructure to leverage.
