Applies ToRSA Product Set: SecurID Access
RSA Product/Service Type: Authenticate App
 
Issue

If an Authenticate App user enters too many incorrect PINs (for example, forced to choose Reset PIN) or chooses Forgot PIN they see the following message:



PIN cannot be reset, Contact your administrator


This can occur if the user is not protecting access to their device with a PIN or biometrics.

 
ResolutionAfter configuring device protection (PIN or biometrics), the affected user must delete the company from the Authenticate App My Account page and then re-register their device.
NotesUsers can be required to provide additional authentication (for example, a PIN) before viewing their RSA SecurID Authenticate Tokencode in the Administration Console Company Settings > Configure Session and Authentication Method Settings.
