How secure is their fingerprint reader? More secure than the ones on mobile decides I hope?
- egberts1 5y agoeveryone that walked through the front door has been asked at least once to try the fingerprint mechanisms (as an unregistered finger) and failed (zero false positive). Unfortunately, my wife’s fingerprint is scrubbed shallow from excessive hand washing and gets a false negative quite often. Otherwise, one has to remember the orientation and angle of finger consistently to get near 100% of the time. And experience gets you there. The part that I like best is the number pad gets scrambled each time you pressed a key while entering in your digits (4 to 8 digits): the glass plate would then offer no clue as to what are the most frequent positions are. Furthermore, any shoulder surfer would be thoroughly stymied by a set of three digits to each of the keypad positions (of which one of the 3 digits has the correct digit, other two got randonly chosen).
