Manzana has incorporated this new security system to be able to unlock the terminal, as well as to carry out another series of actions related to secure access. The fact that we can even use the system to acquire music, book or video content from iTunes stands out. However, the system was previously implemented by the manufacturer Motorola in your model Atrix 4G, back in 2011. It was one of the novelties of this Android-based Smartphone, although at the time it was only used to allow the unlocking of the terminal and access the operating system interface.
Since Manzana highlight that their technology based on company AuthenTec, acquired by Manzana last year, it has been improved and optimized to such an extent that it will allow us to use it as a payment method. The implemented scanner seems fast and the typical movement of our finger through the reader is not necessary, since it is enough to place the fingertip on the new Home button of the Iphone 5s to be identified and act the terminal accordingly.
Another aspect that the Cupertino company has highlighted has been the fact that the data related to the fingerprints of each user does not travel over the network or are stored on external servers. This information is collected and contemplated only by the iPhone in question, in order to maintain the confidentiality of each user and that the data does not travel or be stored in the cloud.
