Based on our analysis of ZKTeco vulnerabilities, we dissect the risks associated with biometric authentication.

Researchers used a hardware hack to bypass Windows Hello biometric authentication on three different devices. Can you trust this login method?

What two-factor authentication types are out there, and which ones should be preferred.

Which screen-locking method best protects your Android smartphone: PIN code, password, pattern lock, fingerprint, or face recognition?

Android fingerprint protection isn’t that reliable after all: it can be brute-forced even without a copy of your fingerprint.

What multi-factor authentication is, why you should use it, and what “factors” there are.

Digital-only badges, COVID tests every 72 hours, mandatory FFP2 masks, and other signs of the new normal at MWC21.

Researchers found a way to create fake fingerprints to fool many devices, although it took a lot of effort.

We analyze the fairy tale The Wolf and the Seven Young Goats in terms of cybersecurity

Mobile World Congress 2019 recapped: 5G, Internet of Things, ultrasonic fingerprint sensors, and artificial intelligence.

Almost every new smartphone now lets you unlock it with your face — and that’s really bad for security.

Two new fingerprint-scanning technologies revealed at Mobile World Congress 2018 use different approaches.

How facial recognition works in the new Apple iPhone X — is it secure enough for you to trust?

We’ve written about insecure fingerprint sensors and other biometric technologies a lot. We were not alone, of course. It looks like the fuss did some good. At Mobile World Congress

Biometric identification — using unique physical attributes such as fingerprints to authenticate people — has been considered secure for a long time. As such, the technology is very appealing to

In 2010 owners of the largest facial database in the world — Facebook — learned how to distinguish a portrait from a landscape: the social network searched for faces in

Mobile World Congress is always about smartphones. But if you stop looking for them and take a look from a different angle — you’ll find a lot of other stuff.

Cybercriminals hunt for data of all kinds: personal details, photos, videos and even ways that users interact with others; this data is often stolen from social networks. Stolen data is

The new trend on IFA 2015 — a trade show for consumer electronics — is all about innovations in technological integrity. Developers chase after hardware superiority no more; instead they

From the moment of the biochip injection I was repeatedly asked the same, almost Shakespearean, questions: “Once I decide to become a cyborg, how will my current routine change? What’s

Today we will relate a Kaspersky Lab implantation experiment to a comprehensible, and culturally relevant concept – the use of Jedi Force™. This might surprise you, but with the current
