Darlene Storm: Future authentication superpower: Pop a daily password pill or wear a digital tattoo?


At the recent All Things Digital D11 conference, Regina Dugan, the former
DARPA head talked about Motorola Advanced Technology and Project
innovations for authentication. The future of authentication could include
wearable authentication such as digital tattoos, or managing passwords by
popping a pill every day that would work as an "authentication vitamin." Then

superpower" as one pill a day would authenticate you on your phone,
computer, door, or car.
