14、ng a writer was my childhood dream. In a world where nearly 6 million fingerprint records of government employees are stolen in one computer hack, and here millions of people are victims of identity theft every year, the next step in cybersecurity may well be mapping your brain.Researchers at Bingha

15、mton University, State University of New York are working on a biometric system that records how your brain reacts to certain images. With a little more polishing, the scientists brainchild could become the way you get into a safe deposit box, your office or past scanners at the airport. It could re
