The hackers they can't copy your tears! Even... Tears preserve them eyeα μας υγρά. Έχουν ακόμη και τη δύναμη να μας «θεραπεύσουν» από μία έντονη ψυχολογική charging. Can they also protect our personal data on the Internet?
Steven Maison, an Australian ophthalmologist, believes he has a very powerful weapon against hackers. It calls it the "first unique biometric pin in the world," and in fact it is a new mechanism that scans the tears and then uses them as passwords.
Mason dropped the weight of his research on the cornea and less on the iris. This is a rule in optical scanners anyway, as hackers cannot copy the unique way they change their eyes every time they cry.
The scanner is able to recognize a face, as each cornea has a kind of unique "map". Mason's code, however, is expected to make their lives much more difficult hacker. No matter how much they try to use the victim's details from the last time they logged into their account, the system will keep kicking them out. Why; Because since the eyes change each time they tear, the system expects the data to change slightly each time as well.
"The surface of the cornea is wet thanks to tears, so our data changes from one minute to the next," explains Maison in the Financial Times. "Therefore, every set of data recorded by each eye presents real miniature variations," he adds.
The goal of experts now is to test the new technology on smartphones, where it could be used to secure any payments ή την πρόσβαση σε άλλες υπηρεσίες, όπως το email. Εάν ο Μέιν έχει δίκιο και το «μοναδικό βιομετρικό pin» αποδειχθεί αποτελεσματικό, τότε δεν αποκλείεται να ενσωματωθεί ακόμη και σε μηχανήματα automaticwithdrawal or security doors.
