RFID is a method of remotely storing and receiving data using
devices called RFID tags. RFID tags can be small adhesive stickers
containing antennas that receive and respond to transmissions from
RFID transmitters. RFID tags are used to identify and track
everything from Exxon EZ pass to dogs to beer kegs to library
books.
Major companies and countries around the world are adopting or
considering whether to adopt RFID technologies. Visa and Wells
Fargo are currently running tests with RFID, airports around the
world are using RFID to track cargo and run customs departments,
universities such as Slippery Rock are providing RFID-enabled cell
phones for students to use for campus charges. According to the
July 9 CNET article, RFID Tags: Big Brother in Small Packages?,
"You should become familiar with RFID technology because you'll be
hearing much more about it soon. Retailers adore the concept, and
CNET News.com's own Alorie Gilbert wrote last week about how
Wal-Mart and the U.K.-based grocery chain Tesco are starting to
install "smart shelves" with networked RFID readers. In what will
become the largest test of the technology, consumer goods giant
Gillette recently said it would purchase 500 million RFID tags from
Alien Technology of Morgan Hill, CA."
For security professionals needing to get up and running fast with
the topic of RFID, this How to Cheat approach to the topic is the
perfect "just what you need to know" book
* For most business organizations, adopting RFID is a matter of
when
* The RFID services market is expected to reach $4 billion by
2008
* Covers vulnerabilities and personal privacy--topics identified by
major companies as key RFID issues
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an automatic
identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving
data using devices called RFID tags (also called transponders).
