Avoid using fingerprints security, they are not so safe

There is hardly a person in Pakistan who does not know about "fingerprint security". To get SIM ownership, to open a bank account, to withdraw money from an ATM machine, to receive a pension for the poor, even the news is hot that fingerprints for voting in the 2023 national election the use of is being seriously considered.

Laptops, smartphones, and mobiles are also being introduced in a new way as a security feature "Fingerprint Reader" is constantly being introduced.

Behind this rapidly growing process of "Fingerprint Security" in our lives There is only one idea behind it and that is that fingerprint security is the safest way to identify the world.

If we tell you that this idea has nothing to do with reality, then you may laugh at our point. But wait a minute, first read this article once and for all, because in the article under review, we will try to remove the four common misconceptions in the minds of the public regarding fingerprint security.

Myth 1: Fingerprints are more secure than security passwords

Most people believe in this idea to the extent of faith, but the reality is quite the opposite because fingerprints are also stolen.

In the United States, for example, it is the official policy of Homeland Security that the fingerprints of any foreigner entering the United States between the ages of 14 and 79 be used regularly without the regular knowledge of that person.

In addition, a conservative estimate is that more than 100 million fingerprints are in the form of a file with the FBI. The file also contains the fingerprints of about 30 million people who Have nothing to do with any kind of criminal activity.

From these two examples, you can clearly see that your fingerprints which you consider to be the safest can be easily stolen just like a credit card or PIN numbers are stolen.

Myth 2: Fingerprints cannot be copied

In 2013, Apple introduced the world's first biometric fingerprint scanner in its popular iPhone 5s phone. Apple claimed that this fingerprint touch system will make your phone accessible to anyone but you.

But less than two days after Apple's claim that Starburg, a researcher at Germany's leading security company, had introduced a Verifinger software for general use in the market that would make any fingerprint high.

The resolution could easily create hundreds of copies with the help of an image that you could use in any biometric scanner. In late 2016, another well-known biometric firm, Vkansee, demonstrated at a conference entitled "Technology is not safe" that the company invented anything you ever touched.

With the help of a state-of-the-art sensor, it can make copies of your fingerprints, which anyone can use anywhere on any biometric scanner as many times as they want. It is feared that the results of the recent US election could be manipulated with the help of such technology.

Myth 3: Fingerprints will never deceive you

To find out how fingerprints deceive you, take some time out of your busy life to go to an easy money center near you where pensioners can have their fingerprints verified every six months using a biometric system.

You can see how difficult it is for them to verify their fingerprints here as most biometric scanners refuse to recognize their fingerprints. Even if you work harder and get older, your fingerprints will be erased from your fingertips, they will get damaged and they will change from time to time if you ever want to withdraw money from an ATM.

If the “fingerprint scanner” on the ATM refuses to recognize your thumbprint, you will be deemed to have been deceived by your fingerprints. The office will leave because you now have new fingerprints in place of your obsolete fingerprints. It will need to be done today.

Myth 4: Fingerprints will replace passwords in the future

Once it has been proven that fingerprints can not only be stolen but also copied, it is highly unlikely that security experts will ever be able to replace fingerprints with passwords in the future.

How long will passwords continue to be used as security?

Eventually, there will be a time when even passwords may not be secure. In this regard, most security experts offer these views, however, any human security facility.

Instead of adopting, multiple security methods will have to be introduced in the future.

This means that only after the introduction of a common security system combining fingerprints and passwords will a person be able to make this claim. That his security system is truly invincible.
