Question
I need to implement fingerprint scanning for all the users in a secure web app.
Do fingerprint reader support chrome or firefox? From my google search they all seems to only be supported by IE. All the users use chrome or firefox...
Will I be better off make the users use the integrated password manager? Or do I need to modify my website (ASP.NET) with a library that will enable the finger print login compatibility?
IMO: Should be less trouble to just make them use the password manager that would be include in the fingerprint scanner package.
What do you guys think of that?
Explanation / Answer
I discovered that fingerprint scanner are not all compatible with browser, especially when you are not using internet explorer. Moreover, most of them are discontinued at almost all the companies that used to make them... The only considerable reader would be the ones included when you buy a laptop.
The better solution to my problem would be to use a USB two factors authentication key and then use a library in my asp.net code.
