  • This video shows how belated the recent recall of biometric safes really is. The video was originally posted on my Vimeo channel in 2015. After four years on Vimeo, I migrated to CZcams and took this video down because the product was already off the market.
    There was never any recall of this device. The importer quietly sold off remain stock, and stopped selling it. But the fact remains that I've been exposing this particular biometric issue since the beginning, and the primary reason no recalls resulted from the work was that I wasn't on CZcams.

    Let me know if you would like to see more from my archives! I have tons of unposted video.

      @@vsevolodtokarev I don't have any of those. If I know of a decent safe, I will recommend it here. What I have are videos of security failures, lots of dangerous gadgets.

    Before watching the video, the biometric and the hidden bypass lock reminded me of the Verifi Smart Safe, before they listened to your feedback.

      Well, at least the Verifi Smart Safe looked like it was worth its price

      This box is nearly identical to the Smart Safes. The basic box fabrication has been around for years and years.

      I like how CZcams is capable of suggesting some videos in which you said these lines when I searched "the damage is done" on your channel.
      I think it's capable of searching (to some degree) within the automated captions of the videos for keywords. If I search "you could just give it a good shake", I instantly find the Union Safe with too many ways to break in.

    If that button is moved to a different place, I wonder if this safe will get your approval?

    • @HandgunSafe
      @HandgunSafe  Před 5 měsíci +4

      No. The bypass lock installed in this is a short-cylinder cross lock. I've demonstrated how to open them on this channel using tools any non-expert lock picker can use.
      Besides, the reason that some biometric handgun safes were recalled recently was this identical programming issue. If someone makes a mistake enrolling a fingerprint, that person has no way of knowing the safe will still open for any fingerprint without actively testing the safe. The risk of somebody leaving a safe available to anyone is too great, so devices that have this programming oversight are being recalled.

    Did you ever do a GunBox video? Also, will you be doing a Wyze review as well?

    • @HandgunSafe
      @HandgunSafe  Před 5 měsíci +1

      No, I never did a GunBox video. I doubt that I will. They just aren't that popular anymore. As for a Wyze review, I don't know. I'll think about it.

    () I keep forgetting how stupid these things are programmed to be. Instead of greeting them with the same cheerful tune -
    Just changing the response to a farting noise when there's no print registered would immediately inform the user that the safe is compromised - without increasing parts count.
    Making it hesitate/require confirmation to 'lock' without a registered print (illuminating the scanner until button pressed again) would inform the user that it wants a print - without increasing parts count.
    Making it refuse to lock (quickly) without using a registered fingerprint would force the user to return it to a more 'secure' condition - without increasing parts count.
