Abstract

The NFC (Near Field Communication) became a popular short distance wireless communication technology by providing many convenient services such as an easy payment in a store.

However, after studying NFC protocols deeply, we found six threats to protecting the confidential data and users´ privacy are unsolved. This paper summaries four standards of NFC protocols, and presents the security issues and unsolved privacy threats in current application environment.
