Trying to cheat my thinkpad's fingerprint authentication

I tried to cheat my Thinkpad's fingerprint authentication from idle curiosity today.


The method I used is below.

  • Copy the surface of my hand with copy machine
  • Cut off part of a part of my finger which is used to do fingerprint authentication
  • Do authentication with the slip of paper.
    • Force the slip of paper on fingerprint authentication scanner of my Thinkpad with my finger which isn't used to authenticate.


The result did ......................... not succeed.
hmm, thinkpad's fingerprint authentication is stronger than I thought ;-|.


But on reflection, the result is good thing for me as a user of Thinkpad :-)
