The National Institute of Communication Technologies (INTECO) and the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) release the Guide to Security and Privacy for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology, which has been prepared jointly by these two organisations as a response to the proliferation of these systems in everyday use devices.
This guide, prepared by the INTECO’s Information Security Observatory and available from today on the websites of both organisations (www.inteco.es and www.agpd.es), analyses how this technology works, the types of devices existing nowadays and their main uses and applications.
Likewise, it describes the risks in the workplace as regards security, privacy and data protection, and in the implementation of RFID devices in various fields, as well as the guarantees required to prevent them.
Full guide available in Spanish and English and the executive summary of the study in Catalan, Basque, Galician and Valencian.
