We’ve gotten used to the usual PIN security system from our older handsets and back then, this was enough to keep any unwanted visitors out of our phone’s menu. It was a very efficient system and was pretty much straight-forward. However, as smartphones, we’re introduced various options of phone protection we’re set for the new age.
One, in particular, is the typically patterned lock option, wherein instead of words or numbers, a pattern that you need to input on your phone is needed to be followed before you can access your phone’s menu. Back then, this itself was a breakthrough in basic smartphone security and has proven to be one of the most preferred options by the majority of early-age smartphone users.
Throughout time, the patterned lock option becomes the go-to option for many smartphone users, though, thanks to a few more options in basic smartphone security, the patterned lock option is barely used at this point.
With the introduction of smartphones and as newer smartphones arrive the market, various new innovations have been set to make things more sophisticated, one, in particular, is the introduction of the fingerprint scanner feature. This new basic security feature for handsets have proved to be more secure than traditional security features of the past. Thanks to the complexity of the feature, our vital information are kept well in tacked.
Other ways, such as Microsoft’s iris recognition are examples of the new age of smartphone technology. Through these newer ways of confining secure and efficient phone security are worth the advancement.
