Computer network operations (CNO) can have an effect technically over any systems using logical communications, not limited to nodes with Internet connectivity. We note in this article some more unconventional venues to attack information systems security with radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies, and develop a threat model for RFID in military use. Unprotected RFID tags offer a b...

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology has already been penetrating daily life. Electric transactions and ticket gate operations in transportation systems, particularly in trains in Asian countries, using contact less IC card are the symbolic systems. Long range RFID using UHF passive RFID and active RFID has been also gathering significant industrial interests especially in the suppl...

During the last decade, many companies considered to implement RFID technology in their supply chains. They had to choose from a variety of largely incompatible RFID systems and therefore demanded RFID standardization. Only common RFID systems along the supply chain were expected to deliver the substantial benefits. This paper describes the RFID pilot and roll-out by German fashion retailer Kau...

Purpose – The available literature suggest that the research on radio frequency identification (RFID)-related issues is largely concentrated on technical, organizational and implementation aspects, and comparatively lesser attention has been invested in understanding the use aspect of such library management systems. The purpose of this paper is to gain an understanding into the factors that in...

Radio frequency identification (RFID) systems have recently been used in a large number of applications. Security and privacy issues have also imposed significant challenges on these systems. Cryptography and authentication protocols have been utilized to effectively solve the security and privacy problems in RFID systems. In this paper, we integrate public key encryption, embedded computation,...

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology that uses radio signals for object identification. Since the invention of RFID in the mid 1930’s, the technology has been used to identify aircraft, collect bridge-toll payments, deter theft, and track livestock, among many other applications. Interest in RFID has spiked in recent years with the formation of the Auto-ID Center and visions of...

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems have provided promising solutions to effective identification of a large number of tagged objects. However, RFID systems suffer from unauthorized tag reading and potential eavesdropping, which becomes a challenging issue because of the shared radio medium and limited size and cost considerations in RFID. In this paper, based on a Linear Congruential...

Radio Frequency identification (RFID) will become an important technology in remotely object identification systems. However, the use of RFID tags may create new threats to the security and privacy of individuals holding RFID tags. These threats bring several problems which are information leakage of a tag, location trace of individuals and impersonation of a tag. Low-cost RFID systems have muc...

Automatic object identification and distributed computing technology have recently been investigated in order to realize a ubiquitous computing environment. Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology has been applied to many business areas such as logistics and supply chains. The Electronic Product Code (EPC) Network, an open global standard proposed by EPCglobal, links RFID to the Intern...

With recent advances in wireless technologies, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) becomes an important enabling technology for logistics and supply chain management systems and beyond. Effective deployment of these systems requires careful selection and seamless integration of RFID components such as tags, readers, middleware and standards. The frequent releases of new RFID components obsole...
