Do you guys still at least have biometric access control devices at your Level3 dc? They even removed this things at our site, because there is no budget for a successor for the failing unit. And to be consistent, they event want to remove all biometric access devices at least across Germany.
Hi Jörg, IMO, biometric was a gimmick in the first place and a bad idea when carefully considered. All authenticators can be compromised. Hence, all authenticators must be replaceable following a compromise. If one of your DCs' palm vein databases is lost, what's your plan for replacing that hand?
