Politician’s
fingerprint will be cloned by using commercial software and images taken,
trustworthy to Digital Marketing Agency
reported.
As Mr. Jan Krissler
said, he has replicated the fingerprint of defense minister Ursula von der
Leyen using pictures taken with a “standard photo camera”.
Mention that, Mr
Krissler, was known as Starbug, was speaking at a convention for members of the
CCC, network that claims to be “Europe's largest association” of hackers.
By this way, German
defense minister Ursula von der Leyen's fingerprint was cloned just from
photos, as the hacker claimed.
Moreover, Mr. Krissler
has suggested that “politicians will presumably wear gloves when talking in
public” after hearing about his research.
“Fingerprint
identification is used as a security measure on both Apple and Samsung devices,
and was used to identify voters at polling stations in Brazil's presidential
election this year, but it is not considered to be particularly secure”,
leading to experts said.
