The Army and Air Force Exchange Service (Exchange) is seeking information from industry for a replacement of the RSA 2-Factor authentication Solution. The Exchange is a joint military activity providing quality merchandise and services to active duty military personnel, guard and reserve members, retired military, and their families at competitively low prices. The Exchange is a retail organization with annual sales of $10.3 billion dollars, including $1.6 billion in "concessionaire" sales.

The intent of this RFI is to gather information about potential vendors and each company's ability to meet the desired requirements outlined below. Before an RFP is produced, we may decide to conduct several demonstrations on an "Industry Day".
