DAY 46 Passwords to be replaced by Web Authentication SYNONYM MATCH

It looks like login usernames and


passwords are on their way out. No
longer will we have to worry about the
security of our login credentials. They are
set to be replaced by an infinitely more
secure login system known as Web
Authentication. Web Authentication has
become an official standard for logging in
at the main Internet standards body, the World Wide Web Consortium (WWWC).
It is a system that will be universally used by web browsers and platforms for
simpler and stronger authentication processes. It will allow website users to log in
securely to their online accounts using a digital device, biometrics (such as
fingerprints and facial recognition) or USB security keys. GIVE YOUR BEST ANSWER

DAY 48 Paper books better than e-books for bedtime stories SYNONYM MATCH

The march of technology may seem


unstoppable, but all things digital may have
a way to go before they replace the
traditional bedtime book - the paper one. A
new study shows that paper books are
better than e-books for bedtime reading.
The study suggests that the good old
printed book, with real pages that you turn with your fingers, makes parents and
children interact more than they do when reading with an electronic book.
Researchers from the University of Michigan studied how 37 pairs of parents and
toddlers interacted with e-books and paper books. The researchers found that GIVE YOUR BEST ANSWER

DAY 50 Europe's cars to have speed limiters PHRASE MATCH

All new cars sold in Europe from 2022


will have technology to limit their speed.
New safety rules from the European
Union will require new cars to have
"intelligent speed assistance" systems.

cars, just like seatbelts and airbags.
There are other things that cars will be
fitted with. All cars will have breathalyzers that won't allow driving if the driver
has drunk too much alcohol. Cars must also have advanced emergency braking, a
built-in data recorder, drowsiness and distraction monitoring, and sensors to help
when reversing. The EU said 25,000 people are killed each year on Europe's roads.
