What is your opinion on the viability of RFID - do you think that the security angle a hopeless cause that it can never hope to ever address adequately?
honda with lowered wheels & a racing engine and I have Vin Diesel along, I could pick and choose trailers with the most expensive gear to hijack. Of course if we get caught, who will stop the Necromongers?
My understading of this message is that you will not have this problem if you apply reccomended Vendor security standards.
The article clearly states that *default* RFID implementations may be vulnerable to certain attacks. This is nothing different that any other security advisory or best-practice guide.
I think the work these guys are doing is great. Someone has to step up and warn companies about potential risks of new technology.
Finally, I don't agree that security is holding up any real progress of RFID. The industry has ALWAYS looked at ROI and the business return side with security last. WHy all the sudden does a few potential risks stop the entire industry? It Doesn't!
The only thing slowing up the RFID industry is PRICE. Not security..

Amen,
the adoption is dependant upon not only cost, but also deployment, management, integration with various supply chain and inventory control applications as well as, but not the least, a change in how behavior, technology and change is perceived by the workforce that comes in contact and use RFID technology. Any Change is scary, but the fact is, these guys are warehouse employees, truck drivers, and fork lift operators. The greatest hurdle in adoption is compliance and cooperation of people bahvior and attitude toward the benefit to them, not the company overall ROI. If they hate, you may as well lie down in the road and let the CFO run a BlueBird bus over you. Yes - the bus will be full of all the warehouse employees as they go to thier monthly Union meeting.
GOOD LUCK

Without a key, your house is vulnerable to thieves.
Without cryptographic protection, your RFID tags can be read or written by anyone.
How does the revelation that ignoring manufacturers' instructions could cause unexpected problems warrant news coverage?
I'm sure if everyone ignored the correct handling of kitchen knives it would doom that "technology" as well.
*sigh*
