Maybe you want to try face recognition rather than setting up a complicated password for better security and privacy protection of your Windows 10 computer. If so, you’re potentially at risk of having your computer unlocked by an attacker by just holding a photograph of you in front of your webcam. Biometric authentication has been around for a long time in its simplest form – fingerprinting. Taking criminals’ fingerprints has been popular since the mid-1800s as an efficient way to identify people based on biological attributes.
Technology has come a long way in the past 200 years, with biometrics and the internet of things developing a tight connection. Fingerprints and facial recognition are now used to authorize payments and unlock cars, while, through voice recognition, you can speak to your own digital assistant. In an even bigger shift, some are based on signals received from the brain and heart, although, overall, variables such as aging could cause errors at some point. |
