Its the themes folder, which is found inside the DLL on windows. In that case, it seems like the Chrome developers used a trick e.g. To conserve memory on Windows. They don't use a DLL equivalent on OS X. If you look e.g. At Firefox, they store the user profiles as a bunch of individual files on all operating systems. Feb 28, 2017 - AirDrop lets you move files and other data from a Mac to an iPad to an iPhone. To help create a Windows 10-Android ecosystem alternative to Apple. Via other devices in its Windows Hello Companion Device Framework,.
Well last week 1P for Mac was just updated to support touch ID for the new MacBook Pro released one week ago. The iOS version is also well-crafted, nice fingerprint support and full function. 1P for Windows 4 is really outdated.
1P for Windows 6 is much better, but still it also has very very limited Windows Hello and Microsoft Passport support released more than a year ago. The Android version finally supported fingerprint censor after around 1.5 years Google announced the API, but the lack of functions (like custom field) drives me to give up my Nexus 5X and buy an iPhone. Kinda disappointed, dude.

1Password Version: Not Provided Extension Version: Not Provided OS Version: Not Provided Sync Type: Not Provided. Hi, Thanks for writing in. I'm sorry you're disappointed and I can definitely understand it.
We are still trying to scale up our smaller Windows/Android teams to catch up to the much longer established Apple team but it hasn't been a smooth ride. As for Touch ID, you kind of did nail it on the head, Apple has a polished and integrated setup that makes it extremely easy to add support for it right away, it didn't take us much to add support for it on macOS as we can reuse most of our existing code and our experience from our iOS app. Apple has a mandated secure enclave for Touch ID data along with extensive parameters we can use that makes us feel safer to use it, this is true for the new Macs as well, there's a custom A1 chipset with the secure enclave there that makes it a nicer setup. As for Windows Hello, we have some questions regarding to its security protecting the derived keys on disk ( which is preventing us from really wanting to expand the Hello support) and it is mostly designed for the UWP apps in the Windows Store. We've shifted our focus to the regular desktop program many months ago because it enabled more features that the UWP app isn't capable of at the moment.
Such as the browser extension support with 1Password mini, which is far more requested than Windows Hello support and not to mention it runs on Windows 7 and above, which still has a much larger market share than Windows 10. We do plan to address this but unfortunately, I don't have an ETA that I can share with you at the moment. : I hate to split hairs, but the Secure Enclave isn't software; it's a chip on the board, which Touch ID Macs now also have (as part of the mini-iOS-device Touch Bar). And if you can 'fake' it with 5$, the world is your oyster.
So far the Touch ID 'hacks' I've seen have been greatly exaggerated though — and could be applied to various Windows Hello-based biometrics as well. TPM is similar in many ways and has been around for a while (a long while), but not everything supports it. I really like that Microsoft is starting to do something with this though, even if adoption is still disappointing. Hopefully it's just a matter of time before there's a double-digit install base that can use it, and I suspect we can certainly do more with it by then.
Isn't the derived key just stored in the user's keychain on iOS / macOS when using Touch ID while the desktop is locked? The keychain is not additionally entangled with the hardware / Secure Enclave AFAIK. So even in a locked state, the user account credentials are sufficient to extract keys from the keychain regardless of Touch ID. Shouldn't the Windows DPAPI be just as (in)secure, being protected by the user account credentials and memory protection? Systems without a TPM should also be the same.
: The token derived from the Master Password is only stored in the macOS (or iOS) Keychain when using Touch ID, and is secured with a cryptographic representation of your fingerprint, which is stored in hardware separate from the the rest of the system: the secure enclave. Now, we don't want to assume that it is impossible to recover this otherwise, but it's very different than simply storing the Master Password on disk, and much more secure as a result. Without these things in place, we wouldn't feel comfortable making it possible for you to unlock 1Password without entering your Master Password (by storing it in memory or on disk) on Apple devices (and Android), and we need to hold Windows to that same standard when it comes to 1Password's security.
The user keychain and whatever is in it can be unlocked with either the user credentials or Touch ID - they are two parallel encryptions, and the user credentials is the weaker of the two. 1Password can artificially limit storing the derived token only when Touch ID is enabled, but AFAIK the OS will still allow access to the keychain using just the user credentials without authenticating with Touch ID at all. On Windows without a TPM, DPAPI is equivalent to this - the data is protected with the user credentials. On iOS, the user credentials is basically the passcode (which happens to be entangled with a hardware ID though another layer of derivation, but that's just an implementation detail). I don't think macOS uses hardware entanglement for the user credentials like iOS. Touch ID is not the same as a smartcard or USB token, where the data is exclusively accessible only through a private key operation performed by the hardware. The parallel encryption with the user credentials is the weak point.
I could be wrong, but this is my understanding of the Touch ID API on macOS and iOS. So, using DPAPI to protect the derived token on Windows is equivalent to Touch ID on macOS. Touch ID does not add any additional security - it is simply a way to avoid typing the user account password.
I purchased an alienware 15 r3 which comes with windows hello enabled which means all hardware included. I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 and couldn't find any package that can substitute for windows hello. Please give me a good alternative which can login using face detection and also make use of the infrared in the hardware for detection in low light Windows hello is basically a face detection system added on Win10. It works with dual-camera and a laser pointer (dual-camera for 3 dimensions and laser for measuring profundity). As all of the answers seem to misunderstand the question (as far as I understand:), and I don't have the rep to comment I will just post an attempt at an answer/help. In short: The Windows Hello login seem to use an infrared point cloud to get 3d depth of the field/face (increased accuracy in face ID).
Since this is basically the same as Kinect, I suggest looking into Kinect projects and libraries. Since there are no finished libraries to just plugin in and use, I suggest taking an existing Ubuntu face ID module, modify it by adding point cloud library (PCL) to the face identification algorithm. Ubuntu PAM face ID: I would try something more recent than the seemingly abandoned pam-face-authenticate, such as this pam-facial-auth, fork it, and modify the input data to be the point cloud image from IR webcam. PCL python binding to webcam: Hope it helps! To add a little to Magnus Persson's suggestion (which is spot-on, IMO) and in hoping someone gets some inspiration from this thread one day: I think the use-case for this on Linux goes far beyond the login screen. It would be awesome if we could just encrypt a user's password using some PCL signature as the secret and then trigger it from a shortcut.

This would allow facial recognition to be used for sudo commands as well or even for websites, apps, or virtually anywhere. I don't think I'm the only Linux user that dreads sudoing anything for the mere fact I have to type my password. Of course, security becomes a slight issue here, but I think there are ways to harden this concept.
