For all the above reasons, and mindful of the fact that the laws of physics mandate electronics are liable to infiltration of data that cannot be prevented, I alert folks to the need to not allow their biometric data to be present in any digital system.
You cannot change your biometric data. You can resecure your Gmail account by changing the password, but you cannot change your fingerprints, face, retinae, or any other biometric. Once hackers secure that info, you are fucked for life. It is impossible to secure digital systems from hackers. Your laptop can be hacked by flashing lights on the LEDs. Physics ensures that every output mechanism is also an input mechanism. Every monitor is a camera, and so is every light. Cars have been hacked by shining lights on the vehicle lights. Computers that read and compile DNA scans have been hacked by malformed DNA.
There is no way to secure digital data, and never will be. Your biometric data is permanent,and once it has been hacked, you will never be able to be unhacked. The only way to secure you biometric data from hackers is to not allow it to be digitized. Once it is hacked (and ultimately, it will be, no matter what you do to prevent it) every account or device you use it to access will no longer be yours, but hackers'.
Never, ever, use biometric passwords or etc.
Thanks!
