Logging on with RSA® SecurID authentication
TRITON Manager Help | Web, Data, and Email Protection Solutions | v8.0.x
If you are using RSA SecurID authentication, when you access the TRITON Manager URL:
*
TRITON Manager detects that RSA SecurID authentication is enabled and available, and displays the RSA version of the logon screen. Note that the "Forgot my password" link on this screen does not apply to SecurID passcodes.
*
You provide your two-factor authentication credentials as defined by your organization. For example, your SecurID user name might be your email address or network logon name. The passcode is usually your PIN combined with a token code supplied by a separate hardware or software token: the format depends on the configuration defined by your organization.
*
The authentication mechanism searches the local repository for a user profile that matches the user name you typed. If there is no match, the search is repeated in the directory service. If a network user is found then TRITON Manager looks for groups that have been assigned permissions in the system, and if an intersection is found between the groups then the RSA logon proceeds.
*
Next, the TRITON Manager custom agent checks the SecurID user name, and the passcode, against the Authentication Manager. If authentication fails, the authentication request falls back to TRITON administrator credentials if configured; otherwise you cannot log on.
If you have enabled RSA SecurID authentication, and you encounter an issue where authentication is failing, you can still log on to TRITON Manager as follows:
1.
Open a browser on the TRITON Management Server machine. You can access the machine using a Remote Desktop Connection.
2.
Go to the URL https://127.0.0.1:9443/triton (or https://localhost:9443/triton).
3.
Log on using the admin user name and password.
You can then configure your RSA SecurID authentication options to provide a fallback for your other administrators. See Configuring two-factor authentication, page 27.
