Is OS authentication more secure when using a fingerprint reader than a (strong) password?

  • Can that be hacked easily?

  • By the way, where is the fingerprint stored? On the hardware chip or on filesystem?

    • Is that dependent from reader's hardware?

    • Is that dependent from the library/OS implementation?
