Marco Biométrico de Windows

As a biometric user authentication technique, fingerprint recognition is widely used and highly economical. To enable the use of fingerprint recognition technology in Windows, Microsoft introduced the Marco Biométrico de Windows framework in Windows 7 and later versions. This framework supports a fingerprint capture device through a range of components, providing a common management platform for different types of scanners and readers. As a result, customers benefit from an improved user experience with enhanced quality, reliability, and consistency.

Marco Biométrico de Windows encompasses a range of applications, including allowing users to manage device settings, troubleshoot fingerprint devices and manage device drivers, log on to a local computer or domain using fingerprint, and then elevate the privileges through user account control (UAC). Additionally, it provides group policy settings for enabling, disabling or limiting the biometric data usage for a local computer or domain.

Before the introduction of integrated Windows fingerprint login using Marco Biométrico de Windows, different fingerprint readers had their own set of proprietary solutions, leading to increased cost, incompatibility issues, and reduced user satisfaction. However, Windows integrated fingerprint login has been able to resolve these issues by providing a standard platform for fingerprint readers, leading to a consistent user experience. This has also contributed to improved scalability and availability of the biometric technology. Overall, the Marco Biométrico de Windows framework is a highly effective solution for businesses and individuals seeking secure and cost-effective user authentication.
