Re: Security procedure question

["Mario A. Spinthiras" <mario () netway com cy>]

Try the following concept:

- What you know
- What you have
- Who you are

There are USB sticks out there that include fingerprint biometric 
identifiers. This can be used based on the following concept:

- Booting the laptop with the usb stick with a minimal kernel.
- Matching a key on the usb stick.
- Matching a fingerprint
- Asking for a password.

This is top notch methods on encrypting and securing mobile devices. 
Without any of the three , you cannot boot. Simple as that :)
