The use of mobile handheld devices within the workplace is expanding rapidly. Mobile devices pose new risks to an organization’s security by the information they contain or can access remotely. This report describes using fingerprint identification on handheld devices. Two types of solutions are described: one that uses the computational capabilities of the handheld device to authenticate a user’s fingerprints, the other that uses a specialized processor to offload processing by the device. Details of the design and implementation of both solutions are provided. The report also describes how the technology is designed to protect the user from unauthorized use of a handheld device.”]
