There is a contradiction in a password composed of characters: the longer the password, the more complex the composition, and the higher the frequency of replacement, the safer it is; but at the same time, the more difficult it is for users to recall. Then there is also the problem of multiple accounts. Multiple accounts are insecure with the same password, but the difference is n times the complexity. Biometrics was born to meet this demand.
Apple acquired AuthenTec, a fingerprint sensor technology company last year, and this year a Phnom Penh iPhone home button came into being. Microsoft's upcoming Win8.1 release next month will have an "optimized fingerprint recognition function", and the company said the authentication function will be extended to multiple services of the system.
Google, Paypal and several Internet companies jointly established FIDO (Fast Online Authentication Alliance), which is trying to establish industry standards in this field.
Time is right
The rise of smart phones is also an important driving force to promote biometrics. Most devices have microphones and good camera lenses, and GPS can also lock the user's location.
Gartner's research VPAntAllan said that they believe that because of the popularity of mobile computing, biometrics can be quickly promoted in the next few years. It is expensive to install independent biometric hardware for individuals or businesses; but integration on mobile devices can help reduce costs. The use scene of smart devices is particularly suitable for biometrics, which protects security and makes interaction more intuitive.
Novel ideas
PixelPin in London wants to replace character passwords with pictures, such as selecting 4 facial parts of your wife in a series of pictures. This is still a rudimentary form. Founder Geoff Anderson said that people recall pictures more easily than abstract characters.
AgniTIoSLofMadrid is a voice recognition software that allows users to read certain preset fields to complete data authorization.
The two more futuristic designs are the brainwave authentication device from Berkeley, California, and the ECG bracelet previously introduced by Leifeng.com. The former reads the user’s brain waves when imagining a certain task, while the latter is a bracelet that identifies heartbeat patterns.
Many people in the industry said that with different passwords for biometrics, its product forms will be very rich. Users can choose according to the form of convenience, usage habits and personal recognition.
