Concerning fingerprints and other biometrics for security...
I am sorry to disclose that our site had a security breach.
Please change your fingerprints to a new secure fingerprint before
using the site.
Hmm... I think I would much rather change my password.
If you don't wear gloves, you leave your fingerprints all over the place. And,
as you mention, you can't change them. :) Ric
Interestingly, a few years ago I took out a joint deposit box account with my daughter.
The "bank"--a credit union--
uses fingerprints--but not ours. Neither of us could get their machine to
record our fingerprints! And no, neither
of us is a safecracker!
