Enhanced Security
Furthermore, biometric traits are unique to individuals and are generally difficult to forge or replicate. Unlike passwords that can be guessed, stolen, or shared, biometrics are inherently tied to the person themselves, making it much harder for unauthorized individuals to impersonate someone else.
Can biometrics be used in mobile banking?
As biometrics grow in popularity, apps such as:
password managers and mobile banking have embraced it. The Drawbacks of Biometric Passwords
But here is a problem that users, developers, and engineers of new products continue to struggle with: biometrics are currently limited in availabilityto digital objects.
The issue arises when a user owns multiple devices such as an Android device, a Mac, an iPad, an Apple TV and a Windows computer.
