Can RFID be hacked or skimmed?

Yes, RFID signals can be intercepted by unauthorized readers in a process known as RFID skimming. This can potentially allow hackers to access personal information stored on RFID-enabled cards and devices without physical contact, leading to identity theft or fraud.

What items use RFID technology?

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a subset of RFID technology that allows for two-way communication between devices within a very close range (usually less than 4 cm). NFC is commonly used in smartphones for contactless payments and data transfer. Since NFC operates on similar frequencies as some RFID systems, devices can be vulnerable to similar security risks.

Understanding RFID Technology

What is RFID?

RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification. It is a technology that uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. RFID tags contain electronically stored information that can be read by a reader device without physical contact.

How does RFID work?

RFID systems consist of three components

  1. RFID Tag/Transponder: Contains a microchip and antenna, storing information.
  2. RFID Reader/Transceiver: Emits radio waves and receives signals back from the RFID tag.
  3. Antenna: Allows the tag and reader to communicate.

When the RFID tag comes within range of the reader's electromagnetic field, it transmits the stored information to the reader.
