Which is more secure password protection or biometric protection on laptops?

Question

so if you have confidential documents saved on your laptop and your laptop gets stolen, is it easy for someone to assess your files without your password or fingerprints?

Answer 1

lol you don't want someone to get those cia files you have, that would be bad.

Answer 2

Mythbusters tested a pressure sensitive scanner for a door entry system, not a notebook swipe scanner.

The biometric system is more secure.

Answer 3

Both are foolproof. Passwords can be cracked, and Mythbusters busted the fingerprint scanner.

If you lock the harddrive with a password for access, it should hinder someone from getting your information.
