yahoi writes "Vietnamese researchers have cracked the facial recognition technology in Lenovo, Asus, and Toshiba laptops that is used for authentication in lieu of the standard logon/password. The researchers were able to easily bypass the biometric authentication system built into the laptops by using photos of an authorized user as well as by creating multiple phony facial images in brute-force attacks. One of the researchers will demonstrate the hack at Black Hat DC this week. He says the laptop makers should remove the facial biometrics feature from their products because the vulnerability of this technology can't be fixed.
