You can kiss all those passwords goodbye! The Eikon Digital Privacy Manager combines the Eikon USB peripheral fingerprint reader with the same Protector Suite QL software currently shipping on millions of notebook PCs today. It offers any user the benefits of simple convenience and strong security provided by UPEK’s biometric authentication technology, all with the simple swipe of their finger. In addition to easier access to their growing number of password-protected web accounts, users also enjoy the following benefits by simply swiping their finger:

• Respond to Windows® Vista(TM) User Account Control (UAC) requests to enter an administrator password for tasks such as software installations or configuration changes
• Logon to Windows, lock and unlock the PC, and switch between Windows user accounts
• Protect sensitive files by encrypting them
• Launch favorite applications by assigning specific fingers for each one.

The Eikon Digital Privacy Manager addresses the growing consumer market need for a simpler and more secure way to protect important personal information from threats such as phishing, password dictionary attacks and malicious software. The Eikon fingerprint reader also won the Consumer Electronics Association (CES) Best of Innovations Award in 2007. For 40 bucks, you can make life a lot easier on yourself…
