Security and Authentication in RFID

摘要

In a system where many readers have access to read from and write to a transponder, one can fear that ill-intentioned persons may try to modify the information contained in the transponder which could lead to the denial of service, intrusion into the personal/private information in the transponder and eventually result into the violation of privacy/confidential information. In mis paper, we proposed a framework mat will authenticate readers before they can access transponders. The proposed procedure is called Authentication Processing Framework - APF. Readers will register with the APF and get the access control key mat will allow them to have access to read from and write to toe transponder. Implementing this kind of framework in the RFID system will alleviate the security and privacy concerns which are some of the major potential challenges and impediments to the RFID system's benefits.
