With the support of the Windows Hello authentication platform, Intel Online Connect allows user to verify their identities via fingerprint scan. Bank of America will integrate the system into its online banking services starting next year, and says it will be the first financial services company to use Intel Online Connect for customer authentication.

As for biometric security via Intel Online Connect, Bank of America’s move could have a considerable impact, with Moore indicating that the bank’s digital banking services currently reach 34 million customers.
