All rights reserved. July 2019 What is happening with my security token? A If you use an RSA SecurID® security token, you will have a new software token option. This change is part of the J.P. Morgan Access Administration credential management enhancements introduced to select clients on June 10, 2019. When will the RSA SecurID® software token be available to all clients? A The RSA SecurID software token is scheduled for general availability in late August 2019. Can I change from the hardware version of the RSA SecurID® token to the software version? A If you are an active user with the hardware version of the RSA SecureID token, a Security Administrator (SA) can assign you with a software token. Once this is done, you will receive a text message with the software token activation code and a notification email, which will have the RSA Secure ID Soft Token Registration instructions in an Adobe® PDF format attached. You can use either a hardware token or a software token; you cannot use both. Please note that you must have a mobile number in your Access profile before a software token is assigned to you. This will allow you to receive an activation code to register the software token. I haven’t received the software token activation code. What do I do now? A Please contact your Security Administrator and ask them to resend the activation code. If you are an existing Access user who has logged in using the software token, you will not receive an activation code. Note to Security Administrators: Go to Edit User Select User Click on Resend Activation code. You should always check if the end user’s mobile device number is correct in Administration-Credential Management. Where can I download the software token app? Which mobile devices is the J.P. Morgan Access® RSA SecurID® Software Token app compatible with? A You can open either the Apple® App Store® or Google PlayTM store on your Apple iOS® or AndroidTM mobile devices. Search for the “RSA SecurID® Software Token” app, and download the app. Be sure you are able to access the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, which typically require a personal authentication on your mobile device before allowing the download. At this time, Apple iOS or Android mobile devices are compatible with the J.P. Morgan Access RSA SecurID Software Token” app. If I am a new J.P. Morgan Access® user or a current user who was migrated to a software token, how will I receive the software token instructions? A Once your Security Administrator sets you up with a software token, you will receive two emails: One email will contain the User ID and two documents attached: the J.P. Morgan Access® New User Quick Start Guide and RSA Secure ID® “Registering a Software Token on your device” registration instructions in an Adobe® PDF format. The second email will contain a temporary password and instructions for setting up a new password. Note to Security Administrators: Any user that is provisioned with a software token will be automatically converted to an Alternate Logon User (ALU-HSM) status, which has additional password rules. Can the software token be used with J.P. Morgan Access® Mobile? A Yes, if you are entitled to the Mobile application. You will need to log on to Access via a desktop or laptop with the software token first. After the first logon, you will be able to use the software token with Mobile. What should I do with my existing hardware token? A You can hold on to the hardware token until you are comfortable with using the software token. If you no longer need the hardware token, please mail or courier it to: Attention: J.P. Morgan Access Expired Tokens 10410 Highland Manor Drive - Floor 03 Tampa, FL, 33610-9128, United States Why should I use a software token rather than a hardware token? A In general, software tokens have certain advantages over hardware tokens. For example, they can’t be lost, they can be automatically updated with the latest protections, and they can be distributed to users on demand, anywhere on the globe. This eliminates the need to carry around an additional piece of hardware, and software tokens have been incorporated into most smartphones in the form of an app. Do I have to convert to a software token? Will J.P. Morgan Access® get rid of hardware tokens? A At this time, Access will continue to support hardware tokens. You should speak with your Security Administrator for any additional details about your company’s needs related to hardware and software tokens. Is it defined at the Client level whether a user has a software or hardware token? A Note to Security Administrators: In AdministrationCredential Management CLIENT LEVEL CLIENT PREFERENCES, there are three Default Settings: ENABLED – allows users to be enabled to software tokens by default DISABLED – Software token will not be available; The Security Administrator can only assign hardware tokens OPTIONAL – Software token will be available to users, and the SA can choose which users to assign hardware tokens vs. software tokens Does the software token require additional authentication? How do I use the RSA SecurID® Software Token App? A The RSA SecurID Software Token App is readily available for use once it is successfully registered. You do not need any additional authentication to open the application, since your mobile device typically will have an authentication method (for example, password, swipe, fingerprint, facial recognition, etc.). Simply open the app on your mobile device, and enter the six-digit code along with your User ID and Password on the J.P. Morgan Access® Log On page. Can the Token be renamed in the app? A Yes. Follow these steps: 1. Choose the Menu option. 2. Select Settings (the gear icon) for the token you want to rename. From the menu that displays, tap Rename Token. 3. Edit the token name. Tap Ok to save the new name. When migrating an end user to a software token, at what point will the RSA SecurID® hardware token no longer be able to be used? A Once the approval process is completed (for example, Security Administrator 2 approves the software token), the end user’s hard token can no longer be used. The end user will need to go through the process of downloading, registering, and activating the software token on their mobile device. Note: End users can only have one Security credential type – either hard token or soft token – not both. How do I download and import the J.P.Morgan Access® software token if I already have an existing RSA SecurID® software token? First, tap the RSA Software token app on your mobile device to launch the app. Then do the following: 1. Tap the Menu icon to display the Token list screen. 2. From the Welcome screen, tap the + icon (Apple device) or Import Token (Android device). 3. Select either Scan QR Code or Enter Link. For this example, we will chose Enter Link. 4. Copy the URL from the RSA Soft Token Registration instructions provided by your Security Administrator and paste it into the import token field on the next screen. Or you can manually enter the URL into the import token field. (Be sure to copy the correct URL for your mobile device – iOS, or Android.) 5. On the next screen, enter your activation code to complete the import of the token. 6. Once successfully imported, a "Token successfully imported." acknowledgement message will display. Tap OK. Notes: Once the token is successfully imported, the six-digit Token Code will display. When you are ready to log on to Access, enter this number in the Token Code field in the Access Log On page. If you are entitled to Access Mobile, after an initial log on using a desktop or laptop, you can copy the Token Code from the RSA app by clicking the Copy icon, and pasting it into the Mobile app's Token Code field. How can I toggle from the J.P. Morgan Access® software token to another company’s software token? A From the JPMA Soft Token screen, tap the menu button. From the My Tokens screen, tap the soft token you want to display; enter the token code accordingly. How can I view the serial number of the software token on my mobile device? A Tap the information icon on the lower right of the Soft Token screen. The serial number, along with additional information, will display. Note: Screens will vary on an AndroidTM device; instructions are the same. If I have multiple User IDs, can I use the same software token? Or will I need to request an additional software token? A If you have multiple User IDs, you can request one software token for each user ID – up to ten tokens per mobile device.

  • Multi-Factor Authentication Implementation Introduction IRS
    Multi-factor Authentication Implementation Introduction IRS Publication 1075, Tax Information Security Guidelines for Federal, State, and Local Agencies (Pub 1075) requires that all access to federal tax information (FTI) occurs from agency-owned equipment. It also requires that any remote access has multi-factor authentication implemented. Remote access, defined by Pub 1075, is any access to an agency information system by a user communicating through an external network (i.e. the internet). These requirements are more important as agencies. looking to reduce costs, allow employees to work from home or telework. Multi-factor authentication drastically reduces the risk of identity theft and unauthorized disclosure of FTI. Multi-factor authentication decreases the probability that the requestor is not the person who he says he or she is. The number of factors is important, as it implies a higher probability that presenter of the identify evidence is who they claim to be. This document explains the different authentication factors and addresses the security requirements for implementing multi-factor authentication to meet the requirements of the Office of Safeguards. Mandatory Requirements This message discusses detailed requirements that must be applied when procuring or developing various multi-factor authentication implementations. An agency may choose to implement a system appropriate to its needs, but all requirements contained in this memorandum that pertain to that implementation must be fulfilled. Multi-factor authentication is required for “all remote network access to privileged and non-privileged accounts for information systems that receive, process, store or transmit FTI” (Pub 1075, Section 9.3.7.2, Identification and Authentication (Organizational Users) (IA-2)).

  • Nexus Authentication Server Product Brief
    Nexus Authentication Server Product Brief Version: 1.2 Introduction Protecting your digital resources and services using only username and a static password as authentication method is not secure enough. Why? Passwords must be long and complex, to be less unsecure. Passwords must be changed frequently. Users often reuse the same password for different services. If a password for one service gets into the wrong hands, unauthorized people can not only get access to that service but also to a range of other services. Passwords can be easily stolen through social engineering. There is an endless range of methods, for example, convincing emails or spoofed websites where people are asked to share their username and password. And, a surprisingly large percentage of people do share their login information when asked to. Using multi-factor authentication from Nexus dramatically mitigates the risk of unauthorized people getting access to services and information. As part of Nexus Hybrid Access Gateway, the Authentication Server provides a unique solution for enabling trusted authentication, without the complexity of distributing and maintaining hardware security tokens. Using Nexus solution, organizations can empower their users with authentication technology that is easy to use, easy to manage, cost effective and secure, to enforce strong multi-factor authentication. Enable strong user authentication throughout the organization and customer base without the complexity of distributing hardware security tokens. What is multi-factor Authentication?

  • Two-Factor Authentication: Selecting and Implementing a Two-Factor
    DEGREE PROJECT IN COMPUTER ENGINEERING, FIRST CYCLE AND DEGREE PROJECT IN INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY, FIRST CYCLE STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2017 Two-Factor Authentication Selecting and implementing a two- factor authentication method for a digital assessment platform NIKLAS TELLINI and FREDRIK VARGAS KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY Two-Factor Authentication Selecting and implementing a two-factor authentication method for a Digital Assessment Platform Niklas Tellini and Fredrik Vargas 2017-05-31 Bachelor’s Thesis Examiner Gerald Q. Maguire Jr. Academic adviser Anders Västberg KTH Royal Institute of Technology School of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Department of Communication Systems SE-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden Abstract | i Abstract Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a two-step verification process that aims to provide an additional layer of security by requiring the user to authenticate himself/herself using a secondary means (ownership factor or inheritance factor). Without the use of 2FA, an attacker could gain access to a person’s devices or accounts solely by knowing the victim’s password, while with 2FA knowing only this password is insufficient to pass the authentication check. In this project, we analyze different methods in which 2FA could be implemented by a Digital Assessment Platform. These platforms allow test assessments to be built directly into digital content; therefore, an important requirement of these systems is secure authentication. Moreover, it is important to securely protect teachers’ account in order to avoid unauthorized people gaining access to those accounts. We investigate how 2FA could be used to add an extra layer of security to teachers’ accounts, focusing on cost, user experience, ease of use, and deployment of the solution.

  • Testing Multi-Factor Authentication Introduction You Have Been Asked to Test the New Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Solution for Valero
    Testing Multi-Factor Authentication Introduction You have been asked to test the new multi-factor authentication (MFA) solution for Valero. Multi-factor authentication means you will be using a device (a token) that generates a one-time password, or OTP, in addition to your regular network login. The one-time password is a six digit number and changes every thirty seconds. This one-time password increases the security of your account because someone can’t login with your account remotely without your one-time password. You will be assigned a MFA token, otherwise known as a DIGIPASS. There are two versions available, a physical, or hard, token, and a mobile, or soft, token. The hard token is a small device that can be attached to a keychain and has a simple button to press that displays a one-time password. The soft token is an app that you install on a smartphone or tablet and works in the same way the hard token does. You tap the button and it displays a one-time password. Figure 1: DIGIPASS hard token Figure 2: DIGIPASS software token To test MFA, we are asking you to use a special version of the new Go2.valero.com site. Please use this site in place of the regular site while you are testing. During the testing period, you will still be able to switch back to the standard Go2 page if you run into any issues. Email any issues to [email protected]. You should have received a number of documents as part of this testing.
