  • This is the lock picking lawyer.

  • And what I have for you today is a lock with a literal open switch on it.

  • What you see here is a path.

  • Let brand fingerprint padlock though it is marketed under a number of different names.

  • Now, I've evaluated a few different fingerprint padlocks in the past, and I also have a few more lined up for the coming weeks.

  • But I have a really hard time believing that we will get into any of Tha MME.

  • As fast as we're going to open this one today, I'm going to show you two different exploits.

  • The first requires a specialized tool that is a padlock shim and the second convey, accomplished with anything like a pocket knife or a screwdriver.

  • We're going to be using my pocket knife.

  • So let's shim this open first.

  • You can use a commercial shim like this where you can make one out of something like a soda.

  • Can we simply slide this down the right side of the shackle on it?

  • Cops.

  • Right.

  • Open.

  • It doesn't get much faster than that.

  • The next exploit requires something like this.

  • Either a pocket knife or a screwdriver works and we need that to pry up this piece of plastic.

  • I've already done that and broken the glue.

  • And unfortunately, I did leave a small bit of damage right there.

  • So it's not necessarily something you can do without leaving a trace.

  • However, once you pop that off, you have access to a small switch right here which, if you push it to the left, the lock pops right open.

  • So clearly, this is a padlock that can be quickly defeated without much in the way of specialized tools.

  • Ah, pocket knife will definitely do the trick.

  • In any case, that's all I have for you today.

  • If you do have any questions or comments about this, please put them below.

  • And, as always, have a nice day.

  • Thank you.
