All cheap smartphones have a fingerprint sensor but all laptops dont have one. Is it because of security concerns or spacing reasons?

    What country and industry do you work in? I’ve never even heard of that much less seen it in a professional capacity.

      Where I work we use passwords but I’m in the trial for Windows hello for business.

      I do know though that smart cards are very common in the healthcare industry. I know that the police also use it.

        that’s really weird. I worked in healthcare and literally never saw that once… that was a decade ago now, but still.

      A lot of modern places use shibboleth and 2FA keys these days, but the military still uses smart card authentication
