      This one definitely falls under the "well that's interesting" category. Microsoft is working on a biometric identity ring that could integrate with Windows desktops via Windows Hello to aid in securing and identifying users. Maybe this will be the future of Windows security. It has potential.

        I expect a nfRF would do the same.

          Currently the only reliable bio sources I'm aware of are online signature and fingerprint.

          Face fails. Voice us quite unreliable, byt can work on small cohorts.

            I've heard that ear recognition is really good.

                It's harder to steal a ring than credentials through phishing emails, as one example.

                  Quite a bit more 🙂 And easier to know when it has been stolen.

                  Now if the ring could read heart or other biometric and only work when on the right person's finger(s), even better.
