Biometrics 04/17

 

1.     1.  Another big device that is making use of biometric technology are smart phones! A few of the newer iPhones have this feature so that you can essentially still have a lock on your phone but not have to enter a passcode every time, you can simply just set up any finger of your choice to have full access of your cellphone!

2.    2.   I’m going to predict that cars are soon going to have this feature if they don’t already! When you think back to it cars have also had passcodes so I wouldn’t be surprised if they began to include biometric technology as well.

3.   3.    Personally, I think that there’s both pros and cons, one of the pros being that you have quick access, it saves you time and also prevents you from accidently forgetting your passcode. The con I would say, and this is more on the morbid side, but I think that certain people would go to the extent of even using your finger to access your device so I think that that privacy level is lower.
