Fingerprint Scanner Theme Download [NEW]

I recently visited Epcot Center and was surprised that they asked to scan one of my fingerprints before I entered the park, even though I already had my ticket in hand. I don't believe they require a specific finger. This seems to be a two-factor authentication method called Ticket Tag, which sounds very similar to what the TSA says about your body scans: "We don't store the scan, but you can use a 'less convenient' method if you want (most of the time)."

You leave your fingerprint behind everywhere already. However if someone wants to get your fingerprint, they currently have to spend the time and energy to get physically close to you and find a spot where they can lift a good fingerprint off of something. This means it's more expensive to do it for a random person, and it means it cannot really be done on a massive scale.

Phones and other devices these days also have the helpful feature of reading your fingerprint. This increases the odds that someone can get access to a database of them somewhere, and decreases the relative risk of leaving a fingerprint at the theme park.

We seem to be moving towards a society where it's normal to use your fingerprint as identifier. "It's a username and not a password," people say, and in some way they are right. However it's slightly more than a username since it's not trivial (doable without any tools) to lift and reuse a fingerprint, like a username would be. This is why it's so popular as a fairly trusted identification method, like on your phone and as second factor of authentication.

This trend also means that, as fingerprint storage gets more common, they can be trusted less and less. The public perception should trend towards "everyone has a copy of my fingerprint already, who says it's still safe to use as authentication method?" This causes the fact that anyone has a copy to be less of an issue, since it will not be solely relied on.

Some existing answers mention that the fingerprint is probably stored as a code, not as a very accurate picture or representation of your fingerprint, and that different devices would encode it in different ways ("abc" vs. "123"). I think this is partially true: a derived code is usually used in authentication, making it more difficult to recover the original fingerprint. However I would expect it to be a deterministic and at least partially reversible process, where if you know the kind of fingerprint reader, you can reverse the derived code back into something resembling the fingerprint. Further, I'd expect the fingerprint reader industry to converge on the most effective way to read and encode one's fingerprint, removing the need to reverse engineer every fingerprint reader's method individually.

Even though they probably don't store your original fingerprint (easily duplicated), the encoded version can probably be reverse engineered back into something resembling the original. Once done, this can be used for every fingerprint made with that device, or at the very least for everyone ever in the theme park.

Well,If you may believe what their policy says, you shouldn't be that worried.In fact, even if they'd store your fingerprints and their database would be leaked doesn't mean that everyone can copy your fingerprint in the wild.

Because a biometric device scans a part of your body (e.g finger) but the software used in that device must convert that image to a kind of string, or at least something interpretable for software.Maybe, device A stores your fingerprint as "abc", and device B as "123".

Yet, that doesn't mean it couldn't be a risk. Fingerprints are still used to identify YOU uniquely and in the future it's only going to be used more. When you travel through airports you give your fingerprint, when you unlock your phone,...

Also, they say that they don't store the actual fingerprint-image. So probably they make-up that string once the first time you enter the theme-park; and when you enter it again the device will again make the same string from the image, and check if it's already in the database. If it is, they have your unique theme-park-ID. Like the process done with hashed-passwords.

Worst case scenario would be that they store your fingerprint and secretly also make a picture of your face with a hidden camera, and they send it to the NSA so Big Brother already knows a bit more about you.But they probably already have the information that the theme park could offer about you, and more. So don't bother to much about that theme park. :)

But you should also know that each time you drink a beer in a pub without wearing gloves, you are leaving a copy of your fingerprints on the glass. Ok, it is hard to use, but not much harder than stealing fingerprints from governmental databases.

IMHO, that means that you should never rely on a fingerprint alone to unlock a highly secure system. The fingerprint securely identify a single human being, no problem here. But it is hard to revoke your own fingerprint if it is compromised, and it should already be known to your government (maybe you can trust it) and many of its agents (are they all trustworthy?) that for their normal work can access to those databases.

Biometric can be a way to actively secure multi way identification: something you know (a password) and something you are (fingerprint). It is fully secured when combined with something that can control that you are actually giving a fingerprint (a security officer for example). But relying on it to unlock an electronic device is very convenient, but not that secure.

The problem here is UNTARGETED ATTACKS. Someone getting your fingerprint digital hash and using it BECAUSE IT WAS IN A LEAKED DATABASE NOT BECAUSE THEY TARGETED YOU. I am sure what the theme park is doing is illegal in my country. I am not sure where you live though. It is definitively immoral and useless.

As I was standing in yet another 30-minute line to get in during my last trip, I thought to myself how much easier it would be if this process was mobile and contactless, like the way Veridium deploys biometrics today. I am biased, but the thought of pulling out my phone to identify myself before even stepping onto the grounds of Universal was extremely appealing. To be able to walk through without smushing my finger onto a (probably very dirty) scanner multiple times was euphoric. But alas, I did what I had to do in order to grab a Butterbeer at Harry Potter World. Such is life.

November 27, 2018, 12:32 PM Are theme parks breaking the law when they ask you to scan your finger when entering a park? Some readers are asking that question after a popular tech website ran a post yesterday with the alarming headline, Six Flags Biometric Case Could Turn One of the Toughest Privacy Laws in the U.S. Upside Down.

Right off the bat, I question whether the Illinois law can be called "One of the Toughest Privacy Laws in the U.S." if it doesn't allow the state to prosecute violations. That's pretty weak, isn't it? And this case won't have any effect upon Disney, Universal, SeaWorld, Cedar Fair, or any other theme park company that does not operate a property inside the state of Illinois, since it turns on a state law rather than a federal one. Nor will this case affect any adults who give their written permission for Six Flags to scan their finger when picking up a theme park ticket or pass.

But this case is not going to keep anyone from getting their finger scanned when going to Disney World or other popular theme parks. And its not going to lead to a big payday for theme park fans who have had their finger scanned in the past. But it is keeping Six Flags' lawyers billable hours up, so hey, win for them, right?

I've always assumed there was something in the terms and conditions you agree to when purchasing the pass regarding the fingerprint scanners. If so, it seems that the mother should have no grounds unless the pass was purchased through a third party, in which case the third party should be the one liable. If not, it's probably an oversight that needs to be corrected by Six Flags, and would likely wind up getting settled out of court. It's not something that should be a big issue, but then again some parents complain about everything (I was once stuck behind a family who argued with Disneyland staff for five minutes over their kid getting their picture taken for a multi-day ticket).

Ironically, Disney is GDPR and also operates in Europe. EU citizens could refuse to provide the information or withdraw consent as the finger info is not strictly necessary to provide the theme park experience. Disney cannot decline to provide the service based on refusal to give Disney the finger info.

As I understand it, the finger scan by Disney is NOT a fingerprint. It samples about three points as a means to determine if your pass belongs to you. If you stole a pass from someone else, you shouldn't be able to use it. The Magic Bands can provide a lot more information about you than that finger scan. I like both.

.....

Disney is, in Europe, not taking fingerprints etc etc.

GDPR breaches would cost them fortunes. Plus, GDPR in the EC is criminal matter.

The standout feature on the OnePlus 6T is its in-display fingerprint scanner. While not exactly superior over its predecessor in the current first-generation, in-display fingerprint scanners are the next step forward in smartphone innovation.

If you have the OnePlus 6T and are looking at customizing the animations and graphics of the fingerprint scanner, check out XDA Senior Member mingo_mgx's MGx FingerPrint Animation Changer. This is a Substratum theme for the OnePlus 6T that specifically changes the color of the fingerprint animation to Fuchsia Pink. To get this working, you'll need to unlock the bootloader and root your device, for which we have a tutorial written up. This is unfortunately required since, as of the Android 9 Pie release, Substratum themes no longer work without root. 006ab0faaa
