Passwords are not passwords, they are usernames. It's a part from the combination to identify you, while unlike usernames, it's hidden by design. Fingerprints are like passwords, they can't be easily copied and be reused somewhere else, for now.
- noko 12y agoI came to say essentially the same thing, but not quite. Fingerprints are not like passwords. You can't reset them or change them. Something you know: Username/password Something you have: security key/phone Something you are: fingerprint/facial recognition Those are three factors of authentication. Can anyone think of others?
