Fingerprint Authentication Utility
(Available on certain models)
The fingerprint authentication utility (available on certain
models) can be used to replace the keyboard-based user/
BIOS password authentication system when booting up.
The fingerprint authentication utility can also be used for user
logon. The user’s fingerprint is read; if the system recognizes
the fingerprint, the user is automatically logged on.
Fingerprint utility limitations
Toshiba does not guarantee that the fingerprint utility
technology will be completely secure or error-free. Toshiba
does not guarantee that the fingerprint utility will accurately
screen out unauthorized users at all times. Toshiba is not
liable for any failure or damage that might arise out of the use
of the fingerprint software or utility.
