No more password: Unlock your bank account with your VOICE and fingerprint
More than 15 million HSBC and First Direct customers are being offered the chance to unlock their accounts using a voice and fingerprint verification system. The new scheme could start to tackle the annoying issue of forgotten or insecure passwords. HSBC UK’s head of retail banking and wealth management, Francesca McDonagh described the new technology as “the largest planned roll out of voice biometric security technology in the UK”. Enrolment for voice ID will be available by first direct to customers in the coming weeks, followed by HSBC by the summer. Touch ID is currently available on all Apple mobile devices for both HSBC and first direct. http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/s…
