Fingerprint Sensor Device
Introducing the Optional Fingerprint Sensor Device
With a fingerprint sensor, you can avoid having to enter a username and
password every time you want to:
•
Log onto Windows
•
Resume from sleep mode
•
Cancel a password-protected
screen saver
•
Log into homepages that require a
username and password
After you have “enrolled” - or
registered - your fingerprint, you
can simply swipe your fingertip
over the sensor for the system
recognize you.
Figure 1. Fingerprint Sensor
The fingerprint sensor uses Softex OmniPass which provides password
management capabilities to Microsoft Windows operating systems.
OmniPass enables you to use a "master password" for all Windows,
applications, and on- line passwords.
OmniPass requires users to authenticate themselves using the
fingerprint sensor before granting access to the Windows desktop. This
device results in a secure authentication system for restricting access to
your computer, applications, web sites, and other password-protected
resources.
OmniPass presents a convenient graphical user interface, through which
you can securely manage passwords, users, and multiple identities for
each user.
