Biometric Security Goes Mainstream

While watching TV last night I was surprised to see Best Buy advertising laptops with biometric security. Lenovo was among the first notebook makers to promote biometric security, selling its 1 millionth ThinkPad with an integrated fingerprint reader in January. CXOs and auditors who carry confidential information on laptops were the first users to jump on the biometric bandwagon. Backed by Best Buy, it’s a safe bet biometrics is ready to go mainstream.
