RFID technology offers great benefits - supply chain solutions, for example, provide unprecedented visibility and increased efficiency. However, the technology also introduces a number of new business risks, among them: -Fraud and error as a result of tag data manipulation -Cloning of tags -Malware and viruses stored on tags -Hacker attacks at the point of sale, cyber shoplifting -Interruption of business continuity as a result of attacks against IT infrastructure (readers, edge servers, backend systems) To fully enjoy the benefits of RFID, these risks need to be addressed adequately. A holistic approach is required analyzing a RFID system end-to-end to identify potential threats and their business impact.. Members of the RFID Security Alliance will discuss strategies to minimize or mitigate these risks and how to comply with industry regulations and governing law (e.g. SOX, FDA). After a short presentation by Lukas Grunwald (NeoCatena), Michael McCartney (QLM Consulting) will moderate the panel discussion.
