ABSTRACT
Although no single technology is ideal for all applications [1], most of the modern RFID systems seem to be moving toward increasing the integration of long-distance passive tags into self-organizing wireless applications. This is the case with the modern electronic product code (EPC) Gen2 tags. They are becoming truly pervasive in wireless network applications, such as Mobile Wireless Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), and Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) [2]. Tags are potentially the targets of attack against their security and this raises major concerns. The objective of this chapter is to analyze some of these concerns and survey solutions that handle them.
