Fingerprint recognition will land on Windows Phone 8.1

Security issues are becoming more important and one of the popular options for enhancing security on smartphones is fingerprint recognition technology. iPhone has pioneered this technology, some Android phones follow and now go to Windows Phone.

Windows Phone will also have fingerprint identification

Since Windows Phone 8.1 SDK has been released, a lot of new features have been leaked like the virtual assistant Cortana and the notification center, but the latest discovery is support for fingerprint recognition technology. This finding comes when developers test out the certificate validation section on WP 8.1, which allows the option to enter a password to access or scan a finger to the fingerprint reader.

Higher security capability

If fingerprint recognition becomes popular on Windows Phone, it can definitely help push Microsoft to reach business users more easily because security issues on this operating system have become more advanced.
