RFID as a Privacy Problem RFID, Surveillance and Privacyas a Research Field The “Sorting Door” as a Research Testbed The “Sorting Door” as a Research Testbed (cont.) A “Sorting Door” Architecture Questions? * RFID, Surveillance and Privacy Ross Stapleton-Gray, Ph.D., CISSP Stapleton-Gray Associates, Inc. March 23, 2004 Active, passive, or hybrid RF devices Operate in the RF spectrum But all: Operating on various frequencies, hence with varying ranges and characteristics Operate over a distance Do not require line of sight Can be interrogated for data conceived (and now demanded) by major players: retailers, manufacturers, and the Defense Department based on a federated information architecture, whose root will be run by... VeriSign incorporate legacy product code standards focused primarily on passive RFID tags owned by EPCglobal (the UCC and EAN International) The EPC debuts, September 2003 Key players demand RFID tagging at aggregate (case, pallet) levels: Wal*Mart Defense Department Target, and others Trials of item-level EPC tagging Some degree of EPC pervasiveness... An accumulation of non-retail RFID applications FDA mandates RFID tagging of pharmaceuticals by 2007 Even without RFID, the EPC is a powerful thing Declining costs of tags... 5￠ each? 1￠ each? Invisible point surveillance (over a limited range) “name binding” occurs, and persists Persistent, if pseudonymous, identity What forms of surveillance are possible? What do the public, and policymakers, need to know? Where and when might we see “tipping points?” What will technology enable, on both sides of the balance? An opportunity to study non-cooperative RFID Why a Door? a sufficiently stretchy metaphor a handy metaphor a good approximation of real-world scenarios One could envision lots of D
