Heartbeat

To prevent cybercriminals from accessing patients' medical records, Researchers in New York are testing a new way to protect this data by using the heartbeat as a password to access it.

The idea is to encrypt patients' medical records using the heart's electrical impulses, so that these electrical impulses, measured with sensors, serve as the decryption key to unlock the files.

Nevertheless, The heart's electrical impulses change, depending on age or illness, among other things, so researchers still have work ahead to refine the system by incorporating these variables.
