Face Recognition Goes Mainstream For Notebooks 130
MojoKid writes "Consumer and business-class computer security has clearly become more sophisticated over the years.
Recent advances in recognition technology have brought forth new capabilities, like what can be found in Toshiba A305 series notebooks. Toshiba's Face Recognition software allows you to log in to the system simply by having your face properly recognized by the integrated webcam during Windows startup. Of course, the system's TrueSuite Access Manager also allows you to do the same, only using your fingers and the integrated fingerprint reader. However, TrueSuite goes a step further with the fingerprint reader, also allowing you to log in to Web sites, applications, and networks as well by using just your fingerprints."

Though, the same technique could work for fingerprints. One finger gives you the real files, another gives you the dummy. Though testing for this isn't that hardm as there are only 10 to check.
