Extension summary
Bio-Safe is a hardware-based password manager built for Broadcom’s FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified CredentialVault™ (“CV”) security chip. Unlike most existing password management solutions where user credentials such as username and password are stored either in the web browser cache or on a remote server, Bio-Safe securely stores credentials within the local client computer’s CV security chip. Credentials stored in CV are encrypted and accessible only after a user successfully verifies their fingerprint through the authentication process. Bio-Safe enables users to log-in to websites much more securely and conveniently with the simple touch of a finger.
Bio-Safe is supported on the following devices:
- Dell Latitude and Precision models containing Dell ControlVault™ (CV) and an embedded fingerprint reader.
- The AuthenTrend ATKey.Pro fingerprint enabled security key
Please note that Bio-Safe requires the installation of Host Application Software. Host Application Software, Installation Instructions and the User Guide are available at: https://www.broadcom.com/products/embedded-and-networking-processors/secure/bio-safe
