Newsweek 7/01/2002 - Gear on The Go - Targus DEFCON Authenticator
|
|
The digital age has brought with it many wondrous things, but the wildly proliferating need for passwords surely isn't one of them. The Targus DEFCON Authenticator (targus.com), a small fingerprint scanner that attaches to a computer's USB port, lets people protect important digital content from prying eyes while freeing up some gray matter. Place one finger on top of the reader, and if it matches the previously stored print, the file opens. Best of all, at 143 grams and 76 x 51mm in size, it's small enough to take on the road. Targus also touts the fact that this is the first stand-alone biometric scanner that comes with two additional built-in USB ports, proving there's one other techno "P" that also continues to proliferate--peripherals.
