Dana Epp's ramblings at the Sanctuary: AOL now offering Two Factor Authentication


« Open Source Security: Still a Myth? \| Main \| Survivability of RHEL3 » September 21, 2004 AOL now offering Two Factor Authentication Now this is interesting. According to an article on VNUNET, AOL is now offering RSA SecurID tokens on a subscription basis to any customer who wants to add two factor authentication to their account. Customers wanting to sign up to the service will have to pay $9.95 for the token, plus a monthly subscription of $1.95. Thats pretty good, especially since the token itself costs about $75 each retail. I guess when you buy in bulk, you can get some killer deals. Only wish RSA would work with us SBSers. Maybe Susan's open letter to RSA will make a difference. Hey... we can dream!
