They began their journey integrating in mobile phones, tablets and laptops, but little by little the fingerprint sensors, as they lower costs, begin to appear in all kinds of devices. Lextar has released Lexar JumpDrive Fingerprint F35 USB memory, a USB flash drive with integrated fingerprint reader.
The fingerprint sensor protects the content of the flashdrive, and you can only access the data it contains, if it detects the fingerprint of its owner correctly.
It is an interesting security measure because if your USB drive is stolen or you lose it, nobody will be able to see what it contains.
The new device is a standard USB, it is not a micro USB, or USB Type C and can store up to 10 different fingerprints, so it is possible to unlock it with any finger. Or maybe you're interested in being able to use it by several people. In this case it is usually assigned the index finger, heart or thumb, which are the most accessible when using a fingerprint reader.
