Issue

Documentation in the RSA SecurID Token Record Decryption Guide is incorrect.

Resolution

The RSA SecurID® Token Record Decryption Guide lists step 3 as follows:

3. Click Browse to browse to the decryption code zip file you downloaded from the RSA web site. Enter the password that you set to protect the zip file in the Decryption code file password field.

If you do this, you are unable to decrypt the tokens. The correct process is as follows:

  1. Complete steps 1 and 2 as documented.
  2. Run the RSASecurIDTokenRecordDecryptionUtility.exe utility.
  3. Point to the Encrypted Records folder from myRSA.
  4. Point to the decryption.zip file from DLC.
  5. Once the folder is selected, it then prompts for the decryption.zip file and password.
  6. Enter the password. 
  7. Continue on with the documentation at step 4.
