A Samsung Galaxy S10 has allegedly been hacked through the simple use of a 3D printed fingerprint. Take a look here for more details.
Apple spent quite a lot of time developing Face ID. The company’s new strategy of building a software ecosystem requires a safe and secure authentication method for financial transactions. Having achieved this goal, the company then proceeded to launch its very own credit card. The decision to shift to 3D facial recognition required the Cupertino tech giant to completely remove the ever beloved Touch ID fingerprint sensor on the iPhone. According to the company, what consumers lost in terms of easy usage, they gained in terms of improved security.
With this in mind, we’ve got an interesting report today (picked up by PCMag) that claims it takes less than 18 minutes to unlock the Galaxy S10 through a 3D printed fingerprint.
