The biometric fingerprint plotter technology is
one of the most advanced means of
ensuring the Privacy notice of
user data devices, but it seems that this is not entirely true, where security researchers have
unveiled a new flaw allows hackers to
penetrate the biometric reader and
collect user information.
Two security researchers detection officers "Wei
Tao" and "Yulong Zhang," security company
"FireEye" discovered a security
flaw threaten users where he managed to intercept the footprint of data users by biometric fingerprint
reader and before he reached the
safety zone data where
it is stored.
According to researchers, this serious threat
not only users gap
Samsung Galaxy S5,
but those other phones containing
a biometric fingerprint reader and operating system to run Android version 5.0. And
according to researchers at the company
"FireEye" they informed
Samsung, but so far it has not taken steps to address the problem, in addition, they advise users
to the Android
system update.
And this brings to mind the analyzes
and studies that indicated that the biometric fingerprint reader is not an effective way to protect data, and it can be hacked.
