RFID Security & Privacy Lounge

The RFID Security and Privacy Lounge references technical works related to security and privacy in RFID systems published in journals, conference proceedings, technical reports, thesis, eprints, and books. It is maintained and updated roughtly monthly by the UCL's Information Security Group in Belgium headed by Gildas Avoine.

A mailing list associated with the website alerts the registered members when an update is performed. The alert may also contain some useful information like calls for papers related to RFID security and privacy. You can simply subscribe / unsubscribe to the mailing list using the Mailing list left menu. You can also suggest a missing paper by sending an email to Gildas Avoine.

Books

We reference below books strongly related to RFID security and privacy. We will be pleased to publish the summary of your book on this page if you send us a complementary copy of your book. Contact Gildas Avoine to do so.

User Control in Ubiquitous Computing: Design Alternatives and User Acceptance

This work presents a holistic discussion of Ubiquitous Computing and empirically investigates peoples’ cognitive attitudes, emotions, drivers and concerns vis-à-vis the new technologies. The maintenance of human control and privacy - a key adoption challenge of Ubiquitous Computing - is analysed in great detail and is set into relation to the positive promises of the new application landscape. A major emphasis of this work is put on the much-debated RFID technology and the technical alternatives that exist today to design privacy-friendly RFID environments. We apply sound empirical analysis and forecasting techniques to rigorously evaluate these alternatives with respect to future users and conclude with a roadmap on how to build privacy sensitive RFID mass-market applications.
