Fingerprints can be hacked
My favorite photograph of a fingerprint is when the Chaos Computer Club reproduced the German Foreign ministers fingerprint from a photo. So much for military grade security.<p><a href="https://www.dw.com/en/german-defense-minister-von-der-leyens-fingerprint-copied-by-chaos-computer-club/a-18154832" rel="nofollow">https://www.dw.com/en/german-defense-minister-von-der-leyens...</a><p>-<p>The core problems with biometrics are that:<p>1) Not revokable (unlike compromised credentials)<p>2) Not a secret<p>3) Usually trivial to reproduce and spoof (even "liveliness" tests)
