Created byAnton Iagounov
Last updated 8/2022
English

What you'll learn

  • Radio Frequency Identification history, timeline, and evolution. Difference between Low-Frequency, High-Frequency, Ultra-High Frequency, and NFC RFID.
  • Basic command line skills, and familiarity with Github repository, linux and/or Windows command line interface (CLI). Downloading, installing, and flashing soft
  • RFID & NFC Physical Access Control Systems, or PACS, and different tag typology, hardware, readers, and industry application such as U.S. government contracts.
  • RFID vulnerabilities, encryption, standards, and government guidelines. HackRF, and other RFID capable readers, writers, and tools.

Course content

4 sections11 lectures1h 50m total length
  • Introduction, Contents, and About the Instructor9:27

    The introduction of our presentation will familiarize students with the instructor, Anton A. Iagounov, and yield insight into the contents of this course and what students can expect from this RFID and NFC learning module.

  • Radio Frequency Identification and Near Feild Communication History & Timeline17:42

    In this lecture, we will discuss the history and timeline of RFID & NFC, and talk more about the origins of RFID technology, and revisit World War II, IBM's Hollerith Census Machine, the first inventors and patent owners of the RFID technology which paved the way to modern times NFC, FDA Approval of RFID for medical devices, and the widely accepted usage of RFID in the government sector, such as the U.S. Department of Defense.

  • Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Near Field Communication (NFC) Facts8:58

    This lecture will focus on identifying and distinguishing between the different types of RFID, that is; low-frequency (LF 125kHz-134kHz), high-frequency (HF 13.56MHz), and ultra-high frequency tags (UHF 860-960MHz). We will also discuss Near Field Communication (NFC) tags, which are a sub-domain of high-frequency RFID.

    Additionally, students will learn the difference between Active vs. Passive tags, FCC (Federal Communications Commission) regulations, Interoperability, EPC, Gen 1 & Gen 2 (and Gen 2 v2), and different classes of UHF tags.

  • RFID Industry Standards with the ISO, GS1, IEC7:01

    This lecture will continue to focus on industry standards and protocols (ISO, IEC, GS1, NFC Forum), and further explore Near Field Communication (NFC), as well as give a brief recap of early RFID adoption for Physical Access Control Systems.

Requirements

  • Basic commandline skills, and familiarity with github repository, linux and/or Windows commandline. Downloading, installing, and flashing software and firmware.

Description

This course is designed to familiarize students with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, historic timeline, RFID industry standards, federal rules and regulations (FCC), the different types of RFID typologies (readers, tags, etc.), differences between RFID vs. NFC, low-frequency (LF), high-frequency (HF), and ultra-high frequency (UHF), and the evolution of RFID from it's inception to our current and modern times. Students will also learn about RFID vulnerabilities, such as cloning, data manipulation, middle-man attacks on RFID systems, and much more.

Additionally, students will learn about the different Command Line Interface (CLI) commands for the Proxmark3, where we'll dive deeper into reading, writing, and cloning RFID tags with Proxmark, and other RFID capable devices, such as the Keysy, Flipper Zero, and HackRF with GNU Radio, where we will explore a conceptual model of signal reading, processing, decrypting and relaying a high-frequency RFID tag, such as the MiFare Classic (ISO 14443). We will also discuss different RFID industry leaders, government contractors, protocols, and independent authorities who set the industry precedent for RFID and NFC.

This course is designed to bring about RFID awareness from a security researcher perspective, and is designed for ethical hackers, cybersecurity researchers, and IT professionals, with an emphasis on signals intelligence.

Who this course is for:

  • Security researchers and hackers with a particular interest in Radio Frequency Identification and Near Field Communication technology.
