Anyone Who Says RFID Is "Completely Secure" Is Selling Something

What You Should Know About RFID Security To Protect Your Business

by Paul Stamp

with Jennifer Albornoz Mulligan, Christine Spivey Overby, Ellen Daley, Sarah Bernhardt


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is not mature enough yet to protect your company secrets. Weak security protocols risk compromising your infrastructure, and any business looking to implement RFID should review the inherent security risks of today's RFID systems. RFID will inevitably bring changes to business processes, and adopters need to anticipate the potential threats that can arise with these new changes and know the limitations of their RFID systems. As with any system, start by considering your need for confidentiality, integrity, and access to your RFID devices and data. If you can't maintain your security standards with the currently available hardware, wait until your RFID manufacturer improves its devices before you implement your system.
