the most "secure" types reads your iris, you have to say the password (voice recalling) and put your fingerprint.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but... what if you vut of a thumb, takes out hes eye and have his voice on tape, thats scary right there.

It would however be a bit extreme for the average party hat thief. lol

Not when there's only one left :lol:

oo oo oo my dad has one of those at work, but it reads his eyes (iris?), its awesome, i went to work with him one afternoon and hes all like "we have to take the abck way in or ill get in trouble if i get caught having you here" so we go in, go towards his office door, sets his chin in this thing, it lasers his eyes, im like "pomg!!!1" it was so awesome, but inorder to steal it, gouge out a guys eyes, my dads a pretty big guy, i dun think someone could get near him with a spoon :twisted:

Your amazing.

What happens if you get a big cut in your thumb that it recorded? How do you go about changing it without getting into the fingerprint secrued area? If you can change it without getting inside it seems pretty pointless. I bet there is a way to do it but I would have no clue since I have never seen one in real life.

Perhaps you should have a scan of all your fingerprints incase there was an accident.

id say something other than the fingers would be better to scan because what if your a part time tree logger (and soo many of you are) you might accidently lose your hands to one of those randow falling chainsaws and never access your por.. Erm.. music again!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

seriously though i think its a bit stupid to get considering passwords would cause less hassle

What if you don't have thumbs...?

How about a spoon and a gun? The thing is, you don't need to gouge his eyes out. You could intercept the encryption information when he scans his eyes, copy that and imprint it into the scanner. No security encrytion system is flawless, except for a rotating cleartext function...but they're theoretical.

This is basically just like a shortcut of typing your password in, if it was for a commercial business (like a bad guy from james bond or something, bwahahah) then yea that is quite a per[bleep]ement, but you can just type your password in if you lose a thumb :P

fingerprints can be stolen if the password is in your head notone can get it out of you (within reason).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remembering your passwords is the best way to go unless you suffer a head injury and forget them in wich case your screwed.

I've been on a fieldtrip for school three years ago, and they had this in an organisation, for testing. It didn't really work, it was too sensitive, thumbs had to be completely dry, no cuts etc.. I don't know how it developed though.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edit:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They had iris scanners in the centrum too, but they weren't very good either. It took the people who worked there 4 efforts to get it in. :?

So I guess it wasn't feasible to have an intruder detection system where the third bad try sends a red hot needle into their eye? :(

I'm not even sure they're theoretical, sounds like a jumble of buzzwords to me

some one been reading dan brown?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:lol:

The iris scanning would be much better than that and I think they already use those for high security facilities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At least only Charlie's Angels can get through if you use both fingerprint and iris scanning protection :D

other than passords no security thingamabob is good by its self. if u had a scanner that u need iris, fingerprints and proximity to the terminal it would be secure.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that or we tick with passwords till we madea implant that can interface with the brain so you just think about it opening and it does.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

off topic a bit, this dude has all his doors riged so that when he gets to them, they open and for no one else. he has a implant in his arm :D

:oops: I wondered if someone might notice, but if you read the background on the system it makes sense that it could be impossible to crack, if not also at the moment impossible to implement. And just for the record, i don't believe everything he says, but this particular thing interested me so i did some background research on it, it works out :shock:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edit: Just fallen victim to my own stupidity, i realise that even if you can't crack the code, if you could install a keylogger that copied the code you could still gain entry. However if you could implenent that kind of security system you'd hope you could also buy a good anti-spyware program.

Best author, alot of his work is based on true facts. The first time I read Da Vinci Code I didn't beleive all the hype about the ancient cult with Leo but then with some research it proved correct.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A I speak I am using a fingerprint keyboard and I had a cut on my thumb last week but it still allowed me access to my keyboard, when my sister tries she gets rejected since I havn't put her on it =)

Watch out, she might beat you up and drag you to the keyboard :P

Make sure you read criticism too or all you get is a biased view ;)

That reminds me of an episode of Dark Angel where, to get access to a facility protected by an iris scanner, they jump some guy and gouge out his eye with a teaspoon. Not entirely unlikely to happen :shock:

Have you seen Minority Report? :D

 

 

In my opinion, fingerprints are something that is too easily to acquire to be used for security.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In spy movies the protagonist drags the villain to the nearest fingerprint scanner to gain entry into the door ^_^

I didn't quite have that solution in mind ;P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

User scans his finger.

 

 

 

Scanned image runs through one-way encryption.

 

 

 

Encrypted image is sent to server.

 

 

 

Server owner receives the image and saves it.

 

 

 

Server owner sends the saved pictured to the authentication service of another server.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unless everyone uses different encryption (which is not going to happen, and which is not made easier by computers becoming faster and faster) it will be a major security issue. After all, you can use two passwords for two different sites, but you can't use two different fingerprints.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Err, Pyro, that's not exactly an optimal way of doing things:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. User scans finger

 

 

 

2. Computer adds unique identifiable text to finger (ie, "signed letter #1857312 to BS Corp., Maine, USA")

 

 

 

3. Image + signature are encrypted by a user's secret key. Receiver can decrypt using public key, but since we're using an asymmetric system (ie RSA, Triple DES, Rijndael, w/e), he cannot recreate a signature like that from the plaintext.

 

 

 

4. Server owner cannot reuse Encrypted text to sign anything but that letter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is no different from current signing algorhythms (Bob, I hate that word. Probably spelt it wrong again, but nvm), where a signature /always/ includes a unique identifier for that message (may also be the (md5/sha-n)-hash of the message).
