SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTHENTICATING RFID READER(OR TERMINAL), SECURE RFID TAG FOR AUTHENTICATING RFID READER(OR TERMINAL) AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

A secure RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) tag for authenticating an RFID reader, a method and a system for authenticating an RFID reader, and a recording medium thereof are provided to prevent hacking by enabling the RFID tag to authenticate validity of the RFID reader and transmit ID data of the RFID tag to the authenticated RFID reader. An antenna(130) transmits and receives an RF signal to and from the RFID reader. A memory(110) stores response data responded to the RFID reader and/or RFID reader authentication information for authenticating the RFID reader. A receiver(115) receives an RFID command including authentication mode information and authentication data from the RFID reader through the antenna. A controller(105) extracts the authentication mode information and the authentication data from the received RFID command, and authenticates the validity of the RFID reader by comparing the authentication data stored in the memory with the extracted authentication data according to the extracted authentication mode. The controller switches an operation mode of the RFID tag to a mode activating a function of the RFID tag if the validity is authenticated.
