Summary:
RSA is continually enhancing RSA SecurID Access by adding new features and keeping up-to-date with security best practices. To keep up with these changes, users with RSA SecurID Authenticate 2.x for Android or iOS must upgrade to the latest version available in the Apple App and Google Play stores by October 12, 2020. After this date, 2.x users will not be able to authenticate. Upgrading offers many benefits, as described in these Release Notes. RSA strongly recommends that you upgrade users as soon as possible to avoid any interruptions or downtime.
