Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 27, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of RSA Security Inc. took several actions with respect to the compensation of our executive officers.

1. Discretionary Bonuses to Executive Officers for Fiscal 2005. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved the payment of discretionary cash bonuses to the following executive officers in the amounts set forth opposite the name of each officer:

Arthur W. Coviello, Jr. $100,000
William L. McQuaide $50,000
Robert P. Nault $10,000
Vivian M. Vitale $40,000
Gerard H. Wilson $40,000

In determining the discretionary bonus amounts for these executives, the Compensation Committee considered our financial and operating performance during the second half of fiscal 2005 and each officer’s contribution to such performance.

2. Executive Severance Benefit Policy. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved changes to the severance benefit policy for our executive officers other than Mr. Coviello (whose severance payments are determined by his employment agreement). The purpose of these changes is to provide consistent terms among our executives. Under the new Executive Severance Benefit Policy, if we terminate an executive officer’s employment without cause, we are required to pay him or her severance payments equal to six months’ base salary plus (1) an additional one month’s base salary for each year of employment with RSA Security, up to a maximum of one year, in the case of our vice presidents, or (2) an additional one month’s base salary for each year of employment with RSA Security, up to a maximum of eighteen months, in the case of our senior vice presidents. RSA Security would also continue to provide medical and dental benefits to the executive during the severance period. However, if the executive officer is party to an individual agreement with RSA Security that provides greater benefits to the executive officer upon his or her termination without cause, RSA Security will make payments under the individual agreement (and not the Executive Severance Benefit Policy).
