Hi, Does anybody have a clue how the PASSPHRASE is encrypted in RACF? It looks very much like SHA (SHA-1 I hope), it depends on both the username and password, but how is it build? Yes, I have asked in the RACF list already :) Br, Costin

There is only one way to compromise the OTP tokens and that is to get the seed used to generate the OTP codes. The compromise is permanent, for the entire lifetime of the token, as one can generate any OTP code. First of all, RSA should not have kept the seeds after the delivery of the tokens
