4Fingerprint’s OutlineThe conventional security systems use ID/passwords and token devices such as ICcards to authenticate users. Therefore the passwords and token devices are exposedto the risk of being lost, stolen and hacking.The Fingerprint authentication method uses user’s fingerprints instead of passwordsfor security authentication. You can use your fingerprints to start up your computerand log on Windows.We recommend you use the Fingerprint Reader in combination with the TPM (TrustedPlatform Module) to increase the security level of your computer.PrecautionsSecurity FunctionsFingerprint Authentication Technology does not guarantee complete authentication and indi-vidual identification. Please acknowledge we shall not be liable for any loss or damage whatso-ever resulting from the use of, or inability to use your Fingerprint device.The Fingerprint authentication method uses multiple fingerprints, encryption keys,credentials data and passwords. You might not be able to use your data if youlose fingerprints, keys, credentials and passwords, so keep them in a safe place.For further information, refer to “Backup”.
