Abstract :
Many proposals have been made to solve the privacy implications of RFID systems: The main idea to ensure location privacy is to change the identifiers of RFID tags regularly. For building inter-organizational RFID systems, pseudonyms can be used to provide a link to the respective owner of a tag without affecting location privacy. Based on these considerations, in this paper a pseudonymization infrastructure is presented that is based on one-way hash functions and thus is a better fit for the specific demands of resource scarce tags than approaches based on public key cryptography
