Don’t overdo biometrics, expert warns

Security company Protegrity USA says biometric data is being collected too widely and too casually. The Office of Personnel Management recently admitted that 5.6 million fingerprints had been stolen from its servers. It is currently not practical to provide users with new fingerprints, voices, or eyeballs.

It should be used for authorization instead of authentication, he says.”]
