The Eikon Digital Privacy Manager fingerprint reader began shipping in May of last year for $50, and UPEK is demonstrating as well as selling Protector Suite for Mac along with the Eikon Digital Privacy Manager at Macworld this week in booth no. 4348.
The fingerprint scanner works with UPEK's software to allow users who successfully swipe their finger to login at startup as well as when returning from sleep mode; unlock Keychain to replay login credentials to Web accounts or access secure notes and certificates; unlock secure preferences to access administrator-level settings; unlock FileVault to decrypt a user's home folder; and unlock the screensaver.
