The hackers they can't copy your tears! Also... Tears keep our eyes moist. They even have the power to "heal" us from an intense psychological charge. Can they also protect our personal information? 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 her weight researchin the cornea and less in the iris. This is the norm in optical scanners anyway, since hackers can't copy the unique way the eyes change every time they tear.
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. Οσο και αν προσπαθήσουν να χρησιμοποιήσουν τα στοιχεία του θύματος από την τελευταία φορά που συνδέθηκε με τον λογαριασμό του, το σύστημα θα τους πετάει συνεχώς έξω. Γιατί; Διότι αφού τα μάτια αλλάζουν κάθε φορά που δακρύζουν, έτσι και το σύστημα αναμένει να αλλάζουν ελαφρώς κάθε φορά και τα δεδομένα.
"The surface of the cornea is wet thanks to tears, so our data changes from minute to minute," Mason explains to the Financial Times. “Therefore, every set data recorded by each eye shows real microscopic variations,” he adds.
The aim of the experts now is to test the new technology in smartphones, where it could be used to secure any payments or access to other services, such as email. If Maine is right and the "unique biometric pin" proves to be effective, then it can not be ruled out even in automatic pick-ups or security doors.
