it's a paris demonstrations in the capital and other french cities to mark the anniversary of the gavel that's movement the police respond with water cannon and tear gas. up next just living in the digital age but for now this is all he doesn't use live in berlin one way and look for news of the top of the hour in the meantime check is that it dot com and on twitter as you have your news just have you with. me take it personally i went with the wonderful people and stories that make the game so special. for all true fans.

because more than football online. gaming puzzle yourself it's not easy to go to another country and know nothing about why for i don't do this because we can't stay in venezuela i'm not going to supply that. closely to global news that matters d.w. made for mines. my fingerprints my face the way i move all of these can be turned into a unique biometrics and be used to identify me for example for making online payments but how secure is this technology really today on shift. when. this
6:17 am
a system registers not fate's and that the bomb and know which customer is next in line i've never found my face wore useful or used my fingerprint to unlock my phone and to get access to this high security area a computer 1st needs to scan my body movements biometrics i increasingly replacing typical passwords and access keys for example. biometric systems can recognise a person's specific physical attributes their fingerprints facial features iris. already used around the world. army doctors and for authenticating patients for important drugs or for online banking on smartphones. even systems that look under your skin so to speak such as infrared scanners that are used in vein matching oxygen poor blood absorbs more in from. tissue.
6:18 am
patterns can be matched. scientists are currently developing technology that can recognize a person on the basis of their heartbeat. others are working on identifying. sounds like biometrics super practical i no longer need those endless letter number and character password combinations happy days or is there a catch we talk to professor christoph minor to find out if teachers internet technologies and systems at a part of them based research institute was more secure of as a possible words or biometrics. i think outlook is that we should be using your fingerprint to log in it's obviously more convenient that you just put your finger on the reader are identified and then you're in that's much easier than typing a password the last words are often we get halfway to pass they're
6:19 am
a little out of date of what password protected systems are easy to implement that's probably why they're so common. for years that's a cost issue mirrors and so on the most sense as i can use to scan a fingerprint or face the more accurately i can capture someone's biometric profile for. the security of this technology depends on how well it's implemented or if there are enough senses this is more secure than passwords. solution talk iris recognition fingerprint scans and facial recognition similar in the sense that the old check for a single constant biometric feature. which the system recognizes me for
6:20 am
a password by contrast is something i need to memorize i should write it down anywhere because otherwise anyone who finds it can pretend to be me if. the future is a multi factor authentication or at least 2 factor authentication of code and i think that ultimately the most user friendly systems will be the ones used the most been exchanged. so biometric identification is convenient but is our personal data safe companies using this tech have to ensure that biometric data is securely stored and encrypt it ideally on end user devices and not if some clout just makes it hard of a hacker to get to unfortunately that's not always the team of israeli researchers managed to hack into a 23 gigabyte database with over 27000000 records containing fingerprints facial
6:21 am
profiles and much more but of course possible databases have also been compromised beyond large scale attacks there's also a risk of individual systems and devices being cracked and i'm a bit worried about how successful hackers have been at odds with biometrics. password can be stolen someone can watch it enter it somewhere or find where he wrote it down or even just guessing this can't happen with biometric identification tag biometrics are convenient and save users from having to remember passwords. but unlike past. you can't change your biomedical data if it's been hacked. and under lab conditions hackers have managed to outsmart biometric encryption technology. for instance they duped an i phone fingerprint scanner using
6:22 am
a fingerprint they'd lifted from a glass. and combining a picture of a person's iris with a contact lens got them past a samsung phone iris scanner. hackers from germany's chaos computer club have developed a wax hand that fooled a palm vein scanner. and chinese hackers spoofed apple's face id live ms detection technology with just a pair of glasses and some tape. we should stress all these hacks were carried out under lab conditions the quality of a system sensors largely determines how safe it is which means smartphones are easier to outwit than elaborate security systems. clearly biometrics aren't as safe as you might think even though as an area like taking a fake wex hand along to break into a high security area isn't very realistic either still many tech companies keep rolling our biometric security features the latest apple and google's models for

example let you make payments using facial recognition tech for the convenient but is not personal data safe with these companies and what if companies or states get too nosy. in great britain c.c.t.v. cameras are ubiquitous the average londoner is caught on camera 300 times every day but if facial recognition technology were applied to analyze that c.c.t.v. footage. surveillance cameras are widespread in britain and london has been called europe's c.c.t.v. capital. people have even begun using them independently of the authorities. because you can go on facebook get people's profile images and upload them onto your own software criminals etc in the place uploaded images all over the life you can pick up the. security system and that person crosses your cameras your system picks it up so this is not easy perhaps but it's also an invasion of privacy in
6:24 am
britain many are used to c.c.t.v. cameras but since authorities have started combining surveillance cameras with facial recognition tag some say this goes too far people like ed bridges from cardiff who recently made a shocking discovery the van was parked just around the corner and the by the time i was close enough to see facial recognition technology written on the phone it had already captured my data several times over and i felt like an invasion of my privacy a law abiding member of the public i was going about my daily business i wasn't committing any crime i was no threat to anyone and yet the police were there filming me and capturing my data is actually. bridges took the welsh police to court and lost he's currently appealing that ruling but for now police continue to use their tap scanning hundreds of faces per 2nd checking them against wanted list . we are
6:25 am
developing and there are actually people being taken off the streets who are wanted for offenses or court direct result of the deployment of this technology. the question remains whether the ends really justify the means. if you ask me we should all be wary of handing out our biometric data i wonder if the convenience outweighs the potential risks researchers are already working on a so-called cans level biometrics here the biometric data is encrypted before it stuart a nutshell this means that not my actual face is thought but a digitally altered version if anyone has the system i can delete my data and create a new biometric password that sounds pretty good and even more options like behavioral biometrics here smartphones and wearables analyze how we type or the way you walk for example. there's
6:26 am
a software that captures how fast we walk the length of our steps and our head movement and uses this data to create a movement profile by which it authenticates us the smartphone can communicate with a gate for example and unlock it on the approach. but if your movement doesn't match the profile the door will remain locked simple behavioral see clintons such as how you get your smartphone out of your pocket can be enough to identify. the. cause and the time this technology into everyday movements can be very convenient because you wouldn't have to do anything to authenticate yourself from. the software can tap into your smartphones and wearables sensors. then it calculates a trust level based on your behavior. this means it assesses the odds that it's really you using the device and not some stranger.
6:27 am
i don't follow. up on the job is behavioral system. does not actually need to save me. movement profile. because for fear this data isn't only registered by your smartphone that's where the trusted score is calculated and only 3 scores shared with the service provided a pass at that. service provider of this means your phone alone registers your movements no sensitive private data is safe from a cloud are shared with a service provider that makes this method particularly secure and. it would put an end to the big problem we currently have leaked password files and leaked by metrical data cyber criminals are selling the state or online by using behavioral profiles this problem would disappear overnight behavioral security technology and
6:28 am
marty factor authentication are very secure as a rule of thumb the more elaborate the security method and sensors the better but so far hackers have always managed to crack by a measurable security systems and allow conditions facial recognition fingerprint scanners pounding recognition nothing is 100 percent safe which doesn't mean we should be going back to passwords because these also get stolen plus many people think 2 factor authentication is a hassle and that's that we should think carefully about if we want to use by a measurable password at all and which companies we trust with this sensitive information what do you think are things like using a fingerprint for online banking a great idea or pretty reckless let us know here as well from me by by.
