Commenting on this, Robert Capps, VP of business development at NuData Security, said: "As more business moves online, it's gravely important for us to look for new and stronger methods to positively identify consumers, online. The use of bioinformatics for online human identification (such as heart rate, or body temperature, oxygen saturation, etc.) is a promising area of study, that would provide a unique way of strongly identifying individuals while reducing the opportunities for online criminals to impersonate a legitimate user.
