Abstract

As low-cost Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) will become pervasive in our daily lives, RFID systems may create new threats to the security and privacy of individuals and organizations. However, the previous works on designing security protocols for RFID either do not conform to the EPC Class 1 Generation 2 standards or suffer from security flaws. This paper will point out the weaknesses of two EPC Class 1 GEN-2-conformed security protocols, and then proposes our new protocol, which raises the security level and conforms to the EPC Class 1 GEN-2 standards.
