The iPhone 6 Touch ID fingerprint reader is still vulnerable to hack

Security expert Marc Rogers, chief security researcher at Lookout Mobile Security, revealed that Apples Touch ID is still vulnerable to hack on iphone 6. A year ago the Chaos Computer Club claimed to have bypassed the biometric security technology designed by Apple simply by making a copy of a fingerprint photographed on a glass surface. Apple hasnt responded to a request for comment to the researcher. Rogers used fingers coated in a gummy substance like Elmer’s glue to lift and replicate fingerprints.”]
