We hear about security breaches all the time now. From Target customer's credit cards to the celebrity iCloud selfie-hack to Home Depot, we feel digitally vulnerable to the enterprising crooks of the world. So are we supposed to have a password like "**_~CZE64>>" or the like? No, there's a much better way to secure your password information: the rhythm of your heart!

Scientists from Toronto have developed a wristband that uses your own heart rhythm as an authenticator for everything from accessing your bank information, receiving emails or unlocking your cell phone! Our hearts are so unique, so different, it is like a fingerprint. From the way it pumps your blood to its size and position in your chest, this could be the perfect security password of the future! The ECG-authenticating wristband, called Nymi, is available for only $79.

Sound ridiculous? Well, if their predictions are correct, we will see our heart rhythm as a fail-safe password no one can steal, in the future.
