As the application of RFID technology grows, so does the concern for personal privacy. However, an information security expert said that the benefits and capabilities of RFID technology far outweigh its potential security issues. RFID refers to wireless and contactless RF magnetic fields used to transmit data to automatically identify and track tags on items. These tags contain electronically stored information that is divided into its own power supply and no power supply. The reading distance varies from 10 cm to 200 m depending on the type of label.
RFID is widely used in different industries, including transportation, logistics, fashion, automotive and pharmaceuticals.
Unlike traditional barcodes, there is no need to align the reader with the label when reading, and the label can be placed inside the item. It is this feature that has caused many people to worry about the privacy issues of personal privacy brought about by RFID. In addition, counterfeiting and other unauthorized applications also hamper the promotion of RFID technology.
Nicolau Solling, director of technical services at IT security service provider Help AG, said: “People are worried about whether information is secure. When it comes to highly secure applications such as passports and payment cards, there is even greater risk. If the label is copied, Then your account is likely to be stolen by others."
Since labels can also be applied to clothing and property, there are concerns about whether these labels will be used to track people.
According to the Harvard report, RFID tags can be placed inside many items, such as clothes, shoes, books, and key cards, and consumers may not know it. These tags can also be used by others to track, and later RFID readers will become very cheap and easy to hide.
Solling said: "Aside from the security issue, because RFID is easy to install and easy to use, RFID will certainly become popular in the future. Unfortunately, organizations do not always notice the internal security risks brought by technology. This is the industry needs. The place for improvement - not only to draw attention, but also to develop standards for the safe use of RFID technology."
