Biometri - en lite sikker løsning

Apple kom ut med en iPhone du kan låse opp med fingeravtrykket ditt. Du kan kjøpe dørlåser du kan åpne med fingeravtrykket ditt.

Men det er ikke nødvendigvis en god ide...

"The biometric characteristics of your retinas, fingerprints, hand geometry, gait, and DNA are actually pretty easy to come by without your knowledge or consent. Unless you never venture into public without a clean-room bunny-suit, mirrorshades, and sharp gravel in your shoes, you're not going to be able to stop dedicate strangers from capturing these measurements. And [...] you can't revoke your DNA and replace it with new DNA once a ripoff artist has used it to clean out your bank-account or break into your workplace."

Why fingerprints make lousy authentication tokens
