PSA: RSA's SecurID Anti-Hacking Dongle Hacked By Hackers Unknown


Do you have one of these things? We got them with our free AOL CDs when that whole acquisition thing happened. The constantly changing code (and yes, it has changed since I took the picture) is used as a baffle for hackers who might otherwise acquire your username and password. Well, now they seem to have figured out the dongles as well.

The extent of the hacking isn’t really known, but the tone of RSA’s open letter is one of caution. So IT guys and security heads, just take note and do what you feel is necessary.
