         Re: 1998 Non-Officer Employee Stock Incentive Plan, as amended
             ----------------------------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have assisted in the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form
S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
relating to an aggregate of 250,000 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value per
share (the "Shares"), of RSA Security Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), issuable under the Company's 1998 Non-Officer Employee Stock
Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan").

         We have examined the Third Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the
Company, as amended to date, and the Amended and Restated By-Laws of the
Company, and originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of all
pertinent records of the meetings of the directors and stockholders of the
Company, the Registration Statement and such other documents relating to the
Company as we have deemed material for the purposes of this opinion.

         In our examination of the foregoing documents, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us
as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to
us as copies, the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents and the
legal competence of all signatories to such documents.

         We assume that the appropriate action will be taken, prior to the offer
and sale of the Shares in accordance with the Plan, to register and qualify the
Shares for sale under all applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws.

         We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any state or
jurisdiction other than the state laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the
Delaware General Corporation Law statute and the federal laws of the United
States of America.

         Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Shares have been duly authorized for issuance and, when the Shares are issued
and paid for in

<PAGE>   2


accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Shares will be validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

         It is understood that this opinion is to be used only in connection
with the offer and sale of the Shares while the Registration Statement is in
effect.

         Please note that we are opining only as to the matters expressly set
forth herein, and no opinion should be inferred as to any other matters.

         We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as
an exhibit to the Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of
Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act and to the use of our
name therein under the caption "Interests of Named Experts and Counsel." In
giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the
rules and regulations of the Commission.



                                              Very truly yours,


                                              /s/ HALE AND DORR LLP

         We consent to the incorporation by reference in the Registration
