The solution is FIDO-compliant and leverages the built-in security features of 7th Gen Intel Core processors; hardware and design expertise of Lenovo; the TLS 1.2 encryption and biometric features of Synaptics Natural ID fingerprint sensor; and the payment processing and unique authentication ecosystem of PayPal.

The goal is to make online authentication nearly frictionless with biometrics secured by built-in, hardware-level protection.
