1. A headset comprising:
- a detector providing an output indicating a donned or doffed condition;
a memory storing a fingerprint data of an authorized headset user;
a finger pad on an exterior of the headset on which a fingerprint of a headset wearer is placed during a validation process;
a fingerprint scanner for generating a fingerprint scan upon detecting a state change from a doffed condition to a donned condition; and
a processor for processing the fingerprint scan to validate an identity of a headset user.
