A Brief Survey on RFID Privacy and Security

Abstract— In this survey we take a look at different approaches proposed in the literature for addressing the privacy and security issues derived from the Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID) deployment. We concentrate on the lack of privacy that RFID users can suffer from, and we elaborate on how the security in the communications between RFID devices can be assured. The main goal of this brief survey is giving a concise classification of the most relevant privacy protection protocols applied to RFID technology. For the sake of brevity and clarity, only the most relevant approaches are selected and classified according to the computational power of the utilised passive devices (i.e. the tags).
