| Issue | Some applications directly support the Time-based One-time Password Algorithm (TOTP) for two factor authentication. Is TOTP supported by the RSA SecurID or RSA Authenticate apps? |
| Resolution | The RSA SecurID app works as a soft token in conjunction with RSA SecurID Authentication Manager, and can be integrated with the Cloud Authentication service for multi-factor authentication. The RSA Authenticate app is a multi-factor authentication option that works in conjunction with the RSA SecurID Access Cloud Authentication Service and provides several options for authentication, including biometrics and FIDO tokens. Neither of the apps support TOTP, and the apps cannot be used without their corresponding RSA servers. However, your application may be integrated with RSA Authentication Manager or the RSA Cloud Authentication Service or both to achieve multifactor authentication using the RSA SecurID app, the RSA Authenticate app or other methods, and optionally, for single-sign. The Cloud Authentication Service also allows you to set centralized access control policies that consistently enforce different security requirements for applications, based on assurance levels. RSA and our partners have many application integrations already available 'out of the box.'
