Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology may become one of the most pervasive technologies of the near future. Yet the widespread adoption of this new technology presents security risks that have not been sufficiently addressed. This book highlights new research regarding wireless identification and sensing platform (WISP) tags, security, and applications. It serves as a reference on WISP technology and presents recent advances in this field. This volume serves as a useful reference for security experts, will introduce RFID professionals to new trends in this area, and can also be used by IT experts looking to utilize this technology.Content:Front Matter Preface Table of ContentsSection 1.
