  1. Security of Windows Hello


    It is known that Windows Hello facial recognition was vulnerable to hackers using a photo. Is the latest version immune to this now? Also, I note that if Hello doesn't recognise you, Windows defaults to asking for a PIN which is a lot easier to crack than a photo to crack. Am I right? Also, a hacker could crack a PIN remotely whereas fooling Hello facial requires him to be physically present. Any thoughts? I ask because I am considering the option of using Hello to unlock Dashlane. Up till now I have memorized my Dashlane code but using Hello would require it to be recorded on the computer. I'm not sure that's a good idea.

    :)

    That made me so facepalm. Some people have absolutely no clue. I hope they don't take you for granted with all this you're doing for them.

    SonicWall is a good security product, so Mindweaver's suggestion sounds like a good one and should make for a rather bigger baby step. Let's hope they take it.
