Windows 10 Will Offer Fingerprint, Facial, and Iris Recognition Standards to Access Device

Microsoft Wants to Boost Windows 10 Security with Biometric Scans

According to Engadget, Windows 10 will offer fingerprint, facial, and iris recognition standards to access devices.

This means that as long as a Windows 10 has at least one of the necessary sensors to facilitate the aforementioned features, you’ll be able to access a new framework suite.

The framework will be called ‘Hello’, and will allow users to store biometric scans and the like, which can they be repurposed for secure log-in purposes.

This means that you’ll have a consistent log-in experience across machines built by varying manufacturers.

For devices that lack the above sensors and cameras, there’ll be another security protocol called ‘Passport’.

This back-up system allows you to enter a password alongside a PIN that’s encrypted on your actual device.
