Now, log into Windows 10 using devices using face or finger



Microsoft has unveiled a new feature that will enable users to sign into a machine with just their face or finger.

Users will get to use the new feature, called Windows Hello, on Microsoft`s upcoming Windows 10 operating system. It works by scanning your face, iris, or fingerprint to unlock devices, replacing a PIN or password to gain access to your own machine

While most current machines won`t be able to use Windows Hello face recognition, Microsoft will support existing fingerprint readers. The new Windows 10 PCs that support the new feature will ship with Intel`s RealSense infrared 3D camera that will scan your face.

The firm said that the privacy and security around the new Windows Hello feature are "enterprise-grade" and will meet requirements of organizations that adhere to strict regulations.
