Biometrics are the only credential you can't roll after compromise.
- artursapek 6mo agothis is exactly my problem with them
- lostlogin 6mo agoIt depends what the biometrics are. There have been successful hand transplants, so new finger prints are possible, but completely impractical. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_transplantation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_transplantation
- ntoskrnl_exe 6mo agoThinking about it, I probably wouldn't remember to change my fingerprints to the new ones with all the services I use, I'd probably have to carry my "legacy fingerprints" wherever I go for some time to avoid a lockout.

- anonym29 6mo agoThese aren't really "credentials" in that they're not secret the way your iris/retina pattern, fingerprint pattern, password, pin, secret key, or security token are. Your name, DoB, and email address are identifiers, yes, but aren't really authenticators - they're more like a username, not a password.
