What is biomatric scanner?
A biometric scanner, when used in consumer computing, most often refers to a fingerprint scanner. However, there are more programs coming out (that have been in use in the corporate/military sectors for years, no doubt) such as technology that uses a webcam to scan your facial features to allow you in to your computer. This technology would also qualify as biometric, as it uses features that are generally different for every person as a method of identification.
What is the disadvantage of a fingerprint scanner?
Ignoring the problems that biometric devices often have of false negatives (i.e. the scanner doesn't recognise you because you didn't put your finger on it correctly), one problem with using any biometric device (such as a fingerprint scanner) is that if someone figures out a way to "spoof" (fool) the scanner, there is no way to change your fingerprint. For example, if my credit card is stolen I can cancel it. If my password is stolen, I can change it. If someone has my fingerprints, well, I guess there is nothing I can do to stop them from accessing whaterver system they unlock.
