RFID Based Security

The vulnerability of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and the objection of consumers to buy products that include non-protected RFID are holding organizations back from investing in this promising technology. Information security and privacy are therefore important academic research areas. This research presents the RFID Threat Countermeasure Framework (RTCF) to better understand the wide range of RFID threats and their corresponding protection countermeasures. We conclude that RFID security and privacy developments are very promising but do require more development iterations to become practically useful for organizations.
