If you are worried about digital security, start wearing gloves forever now because a hacker from Germany Claimed That he is able to easily duplicate fingerprints from someone’s hand picture. Jan Chrysler, a member of the Chaos Computer Club hacker network in Germany, said he had been able to clone the handprints of German Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen. This has been made possible by some close-up photos taken by the minister from different angles while addressing a meeting. These images were taken by a standard photography camera.

This is not surprising since fingerprints are no longer a high quality security measure. Even within two days of the release of Apple’s fingerprint security system ‘Touch ID’ iPhone 5S through this same hacker organization Foolish news was found. The group of German hackers says that they are able to collect elements like dust from the fingerprint sensor from the daily movement of people.
