Microsoft is concerned about the security and in particular Hello Windows system as we saw last month with the strengthening of password policy and this week with the test implementation ofnew drivers for Windows Hello on Surface and Book Surface Pro 4. This time it is an application that will be used to facilitate the use of security features.
The application was already present in the Store but only for internal testing purposes. Recently, according to Windows core , the app has been made available to testers using the latest build Preview say "Redstone". From the description it will serve to unlock their computers using its Windows Phone with Bluetooth sync it took previously.
Currently this feature is not activated but could soon approach the arrival of the anniversary version of Windows 10 . For now the application can however be used to facilitate connection when uses the two-step verification . While it usually takes to open the application to get the security code, it will use the notifications to accept the connection without further manipulation a simple touch.Operation than those using the app "Microsoft Account" on Android already know.
Another important addition to this application from the catch site, the integration of Windows Hello, the system manages the biometric authentication in Windows 10. It will be possible to unlock a PC with facial recognition or a reader imprint from a smartphone if both devices under Windows 10 are equipped.
According to the first test and WindowsCentral Neowin application still has a lot of gaps and all the features are not enabled. It will be interesting to follow its evolution on the latest build for Windows 10 or mobile versions on PC Preview by the arrival of the major update of both systems this summer.
