Best Answer

A biometric scanner that can either be plugged into the computer via USB ports or built in to the computer as is the case with some laptops.

This scanner is used for user identification and authentication, and is considered one of the most secure forms of authentication because there is no way to fake it. There is no password or smart card to give away. The registered user must provide his/her finger or thumb print to gain access.
