I'm amazed how few people have cottoned onto the fact that if you wanted to steal a copy of someone's fingerprint, all you have to do is wait for them to go to their favourite restaurant and steal their empty glass.
Most people wouldn't even realise that the glass wasn't the target...
- neogodless 7y agoFirst, do you have a source for how many people have (and have not) thought about this method of biometric information theft? Second, have you thought about scalability and risk analysis?
- philpem 7y agoSorry, poor choice of words on my part. "Seem to have". It's anecdata, it doesn't seem (to me) to get much media coverage. My point being, if you want to break into one of these offices, there are easy ways which can't be easily mitigated against. If you want to do it covertly... get a job as a waiter at that restaurant...
