Description

Modernized facial recognition authentication can be integrated into Linux PAM workflows.

It is useful for users who want a maintained fork of the original Howdy approach. Camera-based authentication affects login security and privacy, so enrollment quality, spoofing risk, fallback passwords, and recovery access should be planned.
