    "The Weakest Link" - Windows Hello Weaknesses

    Hi there,

    Windows Hello was intended to make Windows more secure, but based on the information that I see, it doesn't. It seems like Windows Hello is only as secure as the "weakest link" of security, whether it is the Windows password, the biometric sensor, or the
    Windows Hello PIN. Depending on how these security methods are configured, the weakest method could vary. If the Windows (or Microsoft) password is weak, then this method's lack of security makes Windows Hello pointless to implement. If someone doesn't enable
    symbolic and alphanumeric PINs, then this method's level of security becomes the same as a weak password. The only way that the biometric sensor would make logins more secure is if it was the only login option. However, it doesn't seem like the other login
    options can be disabled. Therefore, biometric sensors would only improve user login speed.

    Am I correct on these observations, or am I missing a key detail?

    Windows Hello is a biometric security system that uses either a biometrically-enabled camera or a fingerprint reader to log you into your Windows 10 device. To learn more about Windows 10 Hello and its activation, please check this
