Many smartphone makers including Apple swear by fingerprint technology as ultimate protection against hackers.
A sensor manufacturer from China has demonstrated just how easy it is to fool a smartphone fingerprint sensor.
President of mobile security firm Vkansee, Jason Chaikin, created a mold of his fingerprint.
He then took the modeling clay Play-Doh, pressed it on to the mold and created a replica.
Chaikin touched the Play-Doh on an iPhones fingerprint scanner and the machine easily gave Chaikin access.
