I was a little skeptical of the fingerprint scanner, but knowing it's encrypted and stored in the hardware, I'd feel pretty secure in using it.

The 64-bit transition is going to matter in a couple years when iPads start to want more than 4GB of RAM.

i think these 2 things are coming from corperate demands.. The 5s will be the corperate phone the next year with this fingerprint scanner and 64bit for better security

I think you're confusing 64-bit computing with 64-bit encryption. The two don't have much to do with each other. There's nothing inherently more secure about a 64-bit CPU.

Nothing inherently more secure, but as I understand it, a common anti-exploit technique like ASLR is inherently more effective on 64-bit processors.
