Earlier today we spoke about how German group Chaos Computer Club posted a video showing a successful ‘hack’ of the iPhone 5S Touch ID fingerprint scanner.
Among some of the more humorous ways bloggers are purporting you increase your security with Touch ID, it’s being suggested that people should use their toes to acces the 5S, as toeprints are a lot harder to find that fingerprints.
However, one gentleman from Japan has come up with an even safer way of using the new fingerprint technology, by using…his nipple.
In this video, published by Japanese site Rocket News, we are shown a man successfully going through the process of registering his ‘nippleprint’ through the Touch ID sensor, and then go on to unlock the phone with his nipple, working in less than a second.
Another person then tries to unlock the device with his own nipple, unsuccessfully.
To be honest, this a fairly awkward and arduous method of unlocking your new iPhone 5S, but it begs the question: what else can be used to unlock the device? The nipple just adds to the already proven methods of toes and…a cat’s paw.
iPhone 5S security ‘ruff’ around the edges?
