According to Mashable, iOS 11 says that two security functions are added extensively. One of them is to invalidate Touch ID by quickly hitting the home button five times. When the fingerprint authentication becomes unusable, since it becomes the state that there is only the technique to enter the password in order to unlock the iPhone anymore, it is unlikely that the lock will be released and the contents will be seen while sleeping Become.

Meanwhile, if criminals who have data that should not be seen use this function, it will affect the subsequent investigation. In the law of the United States, it is possible for the police to force the interrogator to release the fingerprint lock, but it is not permitted to force release of the password lock.

Until now, it was possible to access the contents data simply by tapping "yes", but from iOS 11 you will be asked to enter the passcode after tapping "yes".

In other words, even if a person other than the principal attempts to access the data in the terminal, if it does not know the passcode, that hurdle will rise at once. Furthermore, for this unlockTouchID can not be used, Cancellation by passcode becomes essential, so it can be said that the protection of data is markedly improved.
