Three reasons why believing in biometric security creates a false sense of security:
1) a person's biometrics can't be kept secret and they can't be revoked
2) once a person's biometrics have been compromised, they will always be compromised
3) spoofing biometrics, particularly fingerprints is a legitimate threat (concerns about the statistical probability of false matches have been expressed by the National Academies of Science, National Institute of Standards and Technology, US Department of Justice, International Association for Identification, and more.)
