An RSA spokesman released an updated statement earlier this week that
said in part: “Our investigation to date has revealed that the attack
resulted in certain information being extracted from RSA’s systems.
Even with this information being extracted, RSA SecurID technology
continues to be an effective authentication solution for customers.”
(Notice the statement didn't say “an effective two-factor
authentication solution.”)

The statement went on to say that revealing additional details “could
enable others to try to compromise our customers’ RSA SecurID
implementations, so we are not disclosing further information.”

========================================================

Now is the question of which systems/procedures are secured? This has
proved that not just the RSA algorithm but all together the various
systems/servers and other components involved to implement RSA should
also be secured. The above issue has put 40 million accounts/id's on
stake as per the sources.
