Our world is surrounded by various types of radio-telecomunication, one of the prominent examples being RFID cards.
Those cards / tokens find use for various situations in our daily life without many people noticing them or questioning them : everybody knows "Tap to pay", digital passports, house keys, time stamps, hotel keys, club cars, subway or bus cars and so on.
In comparison to older physical keys, we humans cant visually distinguish between a very simple "beard-key"-Tags or way more advanced ones.
This has led many people to believing that these technologies are generally safe to use, which can be true, but theres a lot of careful considerations to be made on a case by case basis.
Given the rapid changing nature of IT-security systems, all systems have to be considered unsafe or "to be tested" after some while.
This checkup for existing systems or planning of new systems should be assisted by someone familiar with the various standards in place to ensure the security demands of the application at hand are met.
It's important to keep in mind that due to the rapid changing nature of these technologies, a general security concept has to be put in place and even more important, into use.
We will happily support you in evaluating your existing system or in planning your new system.
