25c3: Analyzing RFID Security

Speakers: Henryk Plötz. Karsten Nohl

Many RFID tags have weaknesses, but the security level of different tags varies widely. Using the Mifare Classic cards as an example, we illustrate the complexity of RFID systems and discuss different attack vectors. To empower further analysis of RFID cards, we release an open-source, software-controlled, and extensible RFID reader with support for most common standards.

RFID tags and contact-less smart cards are regularly criticized for their lack of...

STMicroelectronics NFC products at electronica 2016

von Gourdou of STMicroelectronics talks about the company’s wide range of NFC products especially suitable for start-ups and home labs as they allow innovative NFC-based applications to be developed, also as part of the IoT. Besides the well known payment applications of NFC, these Open Development Environment products aim at non-secure applications like providing information on the next bus coming or the next movie.

STM's products come in 3 categories: tag (subset of RFID), dynamic tag...

Smart Kitchen Project

Rutgers Wireless Communications Capstone

Advisor: Christopher Rose

Our project involved designing an RFID system to keep track of food products. We configured and improved an existing RFID reader software available on an open source platform, GNU Radio, in addition to using USRP hardware. We next implemented the reader to communicate with the tags. We also designed an external application to allow user to view a list of food products that need to be bought and which are currently available...
