Cooperation with McAfee , Intel Will Using Biometric Authentication to Replace a Computer Password

Computers in the next few years would seem to no longer use the password as a means to login . Intel along with McAfee also is developing a biometric authentication technology and can be downloaded at the end of this year .

General Manager of Intel's PC Client Group , Kirk Skaugen said that the existence of such a biometric authentication will further facilitate the use of computers . Biometrics , he continued , would essentially remove the current Windows login password and the future also apply for entry to the site on the internet .

Today, the use of passwords is quite vulnerable to hacking action . Moreover, the use of passwords that are easy to guess , too, is commonplace . And if you want to be safe , then someone must have a password that is pretty much stock . And of course this will be quite a hassle . However, these problems will be replaced simply by using biometric authentication .

But keep in mind , biometric authentication technology is not a new thing . Apple itself uses the technology on the iPhone and iPad products . In addition , Intel also has made the development of biometric technology in a variety of forms , whether it is a fingerprint , hand gestures , facial or voice recognition .
