“RFID and IoT Security — where are we now?”

Venue: WebEx

Abstract:

RFID and IoT are part of our daily lives: there are already more than 20 billion connected objects around the world, and each user has an average of 5 RFID tags. However, these technologies are often at the origin of cyber attacks. The main reason for this is, that the means of attacking have developed considerably in recent years, notably with the increased availability and accessibility of software-defined radios (SDRs). These components allow non-experts to manipulate the radio channels, for listening, capturing, and replaying transmissions, etc.

This talk will familiarise the audience with RFID and IoT applications and standards, then describe the motivations of attackers and their means of action, before showing vulnerabilities or even attacks published on RFID and IoT systems.
