The book covers many topics, including unconditionally secure RFID systems, dynamic RFID tag authentication, RFID ownership transfer, fingerprinting RFID tags, and secure RFID-supported supply chains.
Our reliance on ever more sophisticated computer systems for the management of data and information means that the field of security and privacy technology continues to be of crucial importance to us all. This book presents ten peer-reviewed papers from the 2013 workshop Radio Frequency Identification/Internet of Things Security (RFIDsec’13 Asia) held in Guangzhou, China, in November 2013. This is the fifth of a series of workshops organized by the Asian branch of RFIDsec, which provides a platform for researchers, enterprises and governments to investigate, discuss and propose new solutions for the security and privacy issues related to RFID/IoT technologies and applications. Topics covered include RFID authentication, mutual authentication and ownership transfer, security of RFID applications, NFC and the Internet of Things, as well as side channel attacks. The book will be of interest to all those whose work involves the security aspects of information management.
This is the third revised edition of the established and trusted RFID Handbook; the most comprehensive introduction to radio frequency identification (RFID) available. This essential new edition contains information on electronic product code (EPC) and the EPC global network, and explains near-field communication (NFC) in depth. It includes revisions on chapters devoted to the physical principles of RFID systems and microprocessors, and supplies up-to-date details on relevant standards and regulations. Taking into account critical modern concerns, this handbook provides the latest information on: the use of RFID in ticketing and electronic passports; the security of RFID systems, explaining attacks on RFID systems and other security matters, such as transponder emulation and cloning, defence using cryptographic methods, and electronic article surveillance; frequency ranges and radio licensing regulations. The text explores schematic circuits of simple transponders and readers, and includes new material on active and passive transponders, ISO/IEC 18000 family, ISO/IEC 15691 and 15692. It also describes the technical limits of RFID systems. A unique resource offering a complete overview of the large and varied world of RFID, Klaus Finkenzeller’s volume is useful for end-users of the technology as well as practitioners in auto ID and IT designers of RFID products. Computer and electronics engineers in security system development, microchip designers, and materials handling specialists benefit from this book, as do automation, industrial and transport engineers. Clear and thorough explanations also make this an excellent introduction to the topic for graduate level students in electronics and industrial engineering design. Klaus Finkenzeller was awarded the Fraunhofer-Smart Card Prize 2008 for the second edition of this publication, which was celebrated for being an outstanding contribution to the smart card field.
The revolution in information management, brought about in recent years by advances in computer science, has presented many challenges in the field of security and privacy technology.This book presents the proceedings of RFIDsec12 Asia, the 2012 workshop on radio frequency identification RFID and the internet of things IoT Security held in Taipei, Taiwan, in November 2012. RFIDsec12 Asia provides researchers, enterprises and governments with a platform to investigate, discuss and propose new solutions to security and privacy issues relating to RFID/IoT technologies and applications.Some of the topics covered in the nine
This book presents the most interesting talks given at ISSE 2006 - the forum for the interdisciplinary discussion of how to adequately secure electronic business processes. The topics include: Smart Token and e-ID-Card Developments and their Application - Secure Computing and how it will change the way we trust computers - Risk Management and how to quantify security threats - Awareness raising, Data Protection and how we secure corporate information. Adequate information security is one of the basic requirements of all electronic business processes. It is crucial for effective solutions that the possibilities offered by security technology can be integrated with the commercial requirements of the applications. The reader may expect state-of-the-art: best papers of the Conference ISSE 2006.
The increasing reliance on sophisticated computer technology for the management of data and information in developed and developing societies means that security and privacy technologies are also of great importance everywhere in the world. This book presents papers from the 2014 Workshop on Radio Frequency Identification System Security, RFIDsec’14 Asia, held in Hualien, Taiwan, in November 2014. This workshop aimed to provide researchers, enterprises and governments with a platform to investigate, discuss and propose new solutions for the security and privacy issues of technologies and applications related to RFID and the Internet of Things (IoT). Topics covered include the implementation of passive UHF RFID tags; practical NFC privacy-preserving applications; the design of multi-ownership transfer protocols; and lightweight authentication of RFID. The five high-quality papers included here will be of interest to all those involved in improving the security of computerized systems, wherever they are.
This book provides an introduction to RFID technology. It describes and addresses the following: How RFID works, how it is and can be used in current and future applications. The History of RFID technology, the current state of practice and where RFID is expected to be taken in the future. The role of middleware software to route data between the RFID network and the information technology systems within an organization. Commercial and government use of RFID technology with an emphasis on a wide range of applications including retail and consumer packaging, transportation and distribution of products, industrial and manufacturing operations, security and access control. Industry standards and the regulatory compliance environment and finally, the privacy issues faced by the public and industry regarding the deployment of RFID technology.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-worksop proceedings of the 7th International Workshop Radio Frequency Identification: Security and Privacy Issues. RFIDSec 2011, held in Amherst, Massachusetts, USA, in June 2011. The 12 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 21 initial submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers focus on minimalism in cryptography, on-tag cryptography, securing RFID with physics, and protocol-level security in RFID.
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is one of the modern names that is becoming increasingly popular, as a result of many years of researches and investigations. Powerful hardware and software tools have contributed, and still do, to place the radio-frequency identification as a popular and widely used technology, from large corporations to individuals, and custom applications. Although RFID offers many advantages over other technologies, it is essential to be aware of its limitations. Therefore, it will be possible to overcome the limitations and to increase its applications. As an example, cost, safety, security, transmissions formats, and international standards are important merit figures of continuous improvement. In this book, we present important proposals that will certainly contribute to the evolution of RFID. Theoretical and practical aspects are presented and discussed by the authors, and thus we invite everyone for a pleasant reading.
