Overview

Fingerprint's Outline
The conventional security systems use ID/passwords and token devices such as
IC cards to authenticate users. Therefore the passwords and token devices are
exposed to the risk of being lost, stolen and hacking.
The Fingerprint authentication method uses user's fi ngerprints instead of
passwords for security authentication. You can use your fi ngerprints to start up
your computer and log on Windows.
We recommend you use the Fingerprint Reader in combination with the TPM
(Trusted Platform Module) to increase the security level of your computer.

The Fingerprint authentication method uses multiple fingerprints, encryption
keys, credentials data and passwords. You might not be able to use your data if
you lose fi ngerprints, keys, credentials and passwords, so keep them in a safe
place. For further information, refer to "Backup". (
