Good Overview of an Important Topic

Security is a growing concern in RFID. Businesses are learning the vulnerabilities inherent in writable tags; skimming and eavesdropping of RFID signals at RFID readers is a concern inside the corporation; and hacking of databases associated with RFID is a concern, as with any database.

RFID holds huge promise and is in wide use today, being used by millions of consumers as toll-payment solutions; credit cards; and key entry systems for cars. Up to now much of the focus has been on consumer privacy, i.e., on whether RFID tags will reveal too much information about items in consumers' possession.

Attention is just now being placed on the security issues that businesses deploying RFID face.

The book addresses these issues and brings to the forefront the challenges facing businesses.
