This fake finger could help make our fingerprint scanners more secure

Scientists have created a more realistic fake finger that they hope will help them improve fingerprint ID technology.Fingerprint ID is almost ubiquitous now, but they remain the phone’s biggest security vulnerability. Fake fingers already exist, but researchers at Michigan State University have created a more advanced version that can be used to test fingerprint scanners and make them harder to hack. A technical report detailing the process has been submitted to arXiv, a repository of non-
