Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology allows objects to be identified electronically by way of a small electronic tag. RFID is quickly becoming quite popular, and there are many security hurdles for this technology to overcome. The iCLASS line of RFID, produced by HID Global, is one such technology that is widely used for secure access control and applications where a contactless authentication element is desirable. Unfortunately, iCLASS has been shown to have security issues. Nevertheless customers continue to use it because of the great cost that would be required to completely replace it. This Honors Thesis will address attacks against iCLASS and means for countering them that do not require such an overhaul.
