Abstract :
The application of RFID after years of development, there are many cases of the industries applied, and Tag is considered to be the next generation of Barcode. However, the RFID is via transmission of radio frequency manner, so hacker could obtain information through the analysis way of frequency signal. The personal privacy will be violated if used in the user´s privacy information and transmission without any protective measures to protect. RFID data transmission and storage with hardware ways to achieve the security of information is the best way, but this had been in the problem of Tag costs and capacity. The study taking from the applications ways is to achieve RFID information security and privacy, and do the information securities between the low-cost Tag and the Reader. The study submitted an EPC specification and combined with XOR logical applications to achieve privacy by the way of discussion currently.
