Abstract :
Radio frequency identification technology is surging in popularity and finding use in a growing number of applications. Despite RFID´s growing profile, some researchers worry that potential security problems could cloud the technology´s future, particularly as it is used for more critical purposes. There are concerns that hackers could tamper with or steal RFID data, such as product prices or patients´ or credit-card holders´ private information. RFID is subject to the same complexity-related security problems that have affected the entire IT industry. Sound software-development techniques make RFID more secure
