What are Biometrics?
Biometrics in password security refers to using your unique biological characteristics to verify your identity instead of, or in addition to, traditional passwords.
Here's a breakdown of biometrics and its role in password security:
- Biometric Authentication
• Unique Traits: Fingerprint, facial recognition, iris scans, voice patterns, and even typing cadence are some examples of biometric traits.
