Biometrics are more convenient than proper password behavior to match the security level, and the solution is _not_ to be sloppy enough with passwords to make them more convenient.]]>Feb 2nd 2009 11:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/well execpt for the fact that on SOME models

But whos gonna know to cut off your wang instead of your index finger? I say its a brilliant idea, well as good as one can be considering.

Come on guys, the Sony hate is getting ridiculous here. You do realize than many people who have non-fruit laptops have fingerprint readers built-in and that includes many of the readers of this blog, who are also probably tech-savvy enough to use it.

Oh and as for the people complaining about OMG WHAT HAPPENS IF I LOOSE A FINGER.....*sighs* You can enroll multiple fingers on both hands. And frankly if you loose both hands you have bigger things to worry about then what's on your laptop\PDA. Pretty sure if its like any other biometric solution you can enter a passphrase and possibly an encryption key to bypass. This is a convenience. Fingerprint scanners can be bypassed. Its not easy, but it can be done on all but the most expensive and high end models. My assumption is that this thing would require blood to be flowing threw the finger, else the veins contract and change. So faking this SHOULD be harder. Of course YMMV on that.]]>Feb 2nd 2009 4:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/Feb 2nd 2009 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/Feb 2nd 2009 5:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/02/sonys-mofiria-biometrics-to-be-trotted-out-sometime-this-year/
