Virus in a RFID Tag

Posted by todd at 6:23 PM on March 15, 2006

Imagine your one of those idiots that had RFID chips implanted in their arms so that they could access computer equipment, well it seems they may now need to jack in from time to time and make sure they have not picked up a virus. Or here is on better, you know that load of plasma televisions that are in a container headed to the US. Well someone could inject data into them so that the load of 100 plasmas could register as 50. Do you think running Cigarettes is bad wait till crooks can mess with inventory control.

Competitor walks into a Walmart and with a hand held device changes the inventory numbers of every item in the store triggering massive over ordering forcing the store into supply issues. Think it can’t happen well just wait. [ComputerWorld]
