What do you like best about NetWitness Platform?

1) Easy to use

2) Secure

3) Using RSA you can use your application any where in the word.

4) It has feature to configure at both ANdroid & iOs

5) Good security feature when using specially banking application

6) Access simplifies authentication and credential management, helping to reduce IT support costs. With a conditional-access and risk-based approach, it ensures users are who they say they are and provides the right level of access from any device, across cloud and on-premises applications.

7) Two-Factor Authentication

The RSA token is a physical ‘pen’ that generates a random code every 60 seconds. This code is used, along with the RSA PIN number that you choose, in order to gain authentication for access to an account or server. The RSA token offers a two-factor authentication process that consists of:

‘Something you know’ – A four digit, memorised PIN number.

‘Something you have’ – The physical token, which generates a 6 or 8 digit code every 60 seconds.

8) it does greatly enhance login security. It’s useful for anyone who wants to use two-factor authentication.

9) Deliver convenient, secure access to your extended enterprise with RSA SecurID Access, the leading multi-factor authentication and identity assurance solution. Whether you deploy it as a service in the cloud or on premises, RSA SecurID Access protects both SaaS applications and traditional enterprise resources with a full range of authentication methods and dynamic, risk-driven access policies.

What do you dislike about NetWitness Platform?

1) Stolen Seeds?

Every RSA SecurID has a unique 128 bit key hardware coded into it, a 128 bit number is very long number, so it’s very hard to brute-force/guess what it is. This key is often referred to as the seed. RSA keep a copy of the seed unless the customer specifically tells them to remove it, RSA’s storage of SecurID seeds is what is suspected to have been compromised. Each SecurID issued to a customer is associated with a customer based RSA SecurID Server, which stores the seed number. The seed is in essence a private key which must be kept secret, even from the user, and is used to generate the challenge response number on the SecurID token, and is used to match it up on SecurID Server.

In simple terms, if an attacker were to know which SecurID token you had, based on the serial number on the back or from the customer site database; and assuming the attacker had the stolen RSA database of serial numbers and seed numbers, the attacker could generate the SecurID number without having possession of SecurID token, which defeats the purpose of two factor authentication.

2) However they are many factors and ‘ifs’ in play, assuming the attacker had the full RSA SecurID database in their possession, to be fully successful the attacker would need to obtain the username, password, remote gateway details and SecurID serial number. Most of this information would need to be collected from the user or from within the customer site. So phishing attacks, social engineering and network attacks are most likely ways to obtain such information, which is why RSA is providing warnings to be on the guard with such attacks.

Used two factor authentication so good for banking application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NetWitness Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

1) Easy to use

3) Using RSA you can use your application any where in the word.

4) It has feature to configure at both ANdroid & iOs

5) Good security feature when using specially banking application

6) When we forgot the password then need to know the security questions. If we do not know the security questions then there is a long process to reset the PIN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
