Bill Gates offers everyone to give up passwords.
Microsoft founder Bill Gates believes that passwords are a weak link in the computer security chain. In this, he once again stated at the RSA conference in San Francisco.
According to Bill Gates, manually entered passwords should be replaced with smart cards and other means of authentication. For example, in Windows Vista, CardSpace, a “wallet,” has been added, allowing the user to use virtual network identification cards. A similar program for use in enterprises is called Identity Lifecycle Manager 2007 and will be released in May of this year, writes CNet .
