Did a RFID Hack influence your daily life
Here are some reviews about how RFID Hack influence your daily life with your mobile phone.
I would not want RFID tags as a sole entry access method at all. They are terrible for access control, but decent for secondary authentication. It is just too easy to clone them on the fly. At least with physical keys you must have a quality picture or hands-on for several minutes. Of course there are hybrid options that take the best of both like Cliq.
Among many other things I do lockpicking, safecracking, pentesting and the like. Most people freak out when they learn that. I have been advised to not tell people what I am capable of during interviews. Pretty sad when I have an IS degree and will be looking for work in that field soon. How am I to get a job securing things if everyone fears people that can secure things?
lots of RFID actually used is completely broken and highly unsecure, like Mifare or most of the LF tags, but there's quite a good variety of tag that you can't just clone and that are highly secure…
too bad, lots of people still use some broken old RFID technology for security.
FYI, phone cases do exist to achieve what you want. NFC (or Near Field Communication) has been around for awhile and is in a lot of Android phones already. Apple still hasn't put NFC in their phones. However, NFC emulates the RFID protocol and allows you to use one chip for several different RFID tags (from Wikipedia: NFC standards cover communications protocols and data exchange formats, and are based on existing radio-frequency identification (RFID) standards including ISO/IEC 14443 and FeliCa. NFC can be used for other things like sharing photos between your friends.
