`
` employees need for security and authentication,
`Aiming to decrease the amount of
`data
`RSA Security Inc. Monday announced the release of its SecurID ComboReader.
`
`The SecurID ComboReader is a combination token and smart-card reader, designed for use
`with RSA's ACE/Server security and authentication software, the company said in a
`statement. ACE/Server is a two-factor authentication system that RSA offers for e-business
`and remote access customers. Two-factor authentication requires users to provide two
`pieces of data in order to be authenticated: something they have -- in this case a token -- and
`something they know, like a personal identification number or password.
`
`About the size and thickness of five or six credit cards, the SecurID ComboReader functions
`as a token, but also offers a smart-card reader for future use, according to Ted Kamionek,
`senior product manager of smart cards at RSA. The device is aimed at businesses that
`already use token-based authentication and are unsure about their future technology
`direction, but are considering smart cards, he said.
`
`For companies using tokens that might move to smart cards within a few years, the SecurID
`ComboReader "allows people to hedge their bet towards a more complicated technology
`solution," he said.
`
`By having smart-card readers already deployed as part of tokens, when companies do decide
`to move to systems based on smart cards, they will save money and be able to get a new
`system up and running faster, he said.
