A win for enterprise as RSA SecurID now available for Windows Phone
We heard rumours of this app being in development as far back as early last year but it is now available to download for Windows Phone. RSA securID tokens should be familiar to many who work remotely, they allow business to secure access to their systems.
The app is an important addition to the business credentials Windows Phone now exhibits as a platform for work and play. Having the token on a users smartphone allows IT departments to stop giving out expensive hardware fobs to its mobile workers. The app is compatible with devices running Windows Phone 7.5 and Windows Phone 8. Read on to find out more.
RSA SecurID has been on the Windows Phone Store since mid-last month and is still in its version 1.0 guise. The app is free to download but you’ll need to contact your workplace admin or helpdesk to assist in getting it all set up. As with all tokens of this type once the backend configuration is done by your workplace IT dept. it will work in a similar way to the physical fob you used in the past.
