Password easy to forget that the fingerprints can be forged, so United Kingdom Halifax Bank in trying new methods to protect the safety of users. This method is uses the user's heart rate to start Internet banking services.

Halifax Bank beat unlock

At present, the Halifax Bank the heartbeat to unlock system in the proof of concept stage, has not yet formally launched. It uses Canada start-up company's Bionym Nymi bracelet through built-in sensors to monitor and capture the user's heart rate and electrocardiogram technology as "Unlocking key". This means that, when unlocked, the user must wear Nymi smart bracelet. OtterBox iPhone 6 Cases OtterBox case for iPhone 6

First of all, when you first wear Nymi, applications on the phone through a Bluetooth connection, and then follow the instructions click or press and hold the smart bracelet top points of contact, complete identification and password service. Of course, you can delete it at any time. Worth noting is that in the process of authentication, once remove the bracelet, the verification will fail.

In fact, the idea of using heartbeat as a password is an innovative concept, aims to make banking services more secure. Last month, the Royal Bank of Scotland, Apple Touch ID technology allows users to access bank accounts. This service supports iPhone 5s, 6 and 6 Plus users. Halifax Bank believe their methods are more secure.

Halifax executive Marc Lien said, between different people, heartbeat patterns there is an essential difference. In contrast, fingerprint or iris recognition is not the same as heart can not be copied. This technology prevents fraud by stealing the user's biometric fraud crimes such as theft.

Last year, Nymi bracelet is introduced to the market, as a means of payment. Bionym said this is the first use of biometrics wearable devices that support NFC payments. In fact, there are a lot of companies are trying to use biometric technology to achieve authentication.

Other biometric authentication technology

Like last year, the EyeLock introduced an iris scan myris authentication devices. The device is a mouse, computer through a USB connection, and use the video scanning user record: 240 points on the IRIS, generating 2048-bit digital signature only. After that, you took it, at my eyes, will be able to complete the login. But this device seems to experience is not very good.

And most recently in the MWC Conference, Qualcomm Sense ID of ultrasonic fingerprint recognition technology stunning. It allows users on a variety of mobile devices, more easy and secure authentication. The technology uses ultrasonic fingerprint recognition, without direct contact, have a higher degree of accuracy and a more solid fingerprint, not afraid of sweat, grease, hand creams and other common stains. Japan Fujitsu develops iris recognition technology for smart phones. Users need only to look at the phone's screen, the IRIS can be detected by infrared, after the data has been read phone unlock.

Although this can't predict the Halifax Bank beat to unlock the success or failure of the system, it will become a trend. But what is certain is, password like 123456 and 654321 would drift away free books. Nowadays, Lei Feng is most worried about is that the goddess in wall cases, how to unlock or is ~~
