django_mfa2_example

Fingerprint-based authentication and authorization system in Python (Django). This can be integrated with e-voting systems and other applications that should be very secure.

A walk-through of this repository can be found on dev.to in this tutorial-like article Fingerprint-based authentication and authorization in Python(Django) web applications. This example application uses Django-mfa2 to implement a password-less fingerprint-based authentication and authorization system. It's live and can be accessed here.
