A radio frequency identification (RFID) system consists of three components: radio frequency (RF) tags (or transponders), RF readers (or transceivers), and a backend server. Tag readers inquire tags of their contents by broadcasting an RF signal, without physical contact, at a rate of several hundred tags per second and from a range of several meters. The advancements of Silicon manufacturing also result in great cost reduction for RFID tags compared to barcodes, not to mention that the tags can carry more data and are more resistant to dust and twisting. Thanks to these excellent features, the world has seen many RFID systems already put to use by manufacturers and businesses of all kinds of goods for supply management and inventory control and such; in addition, many public facilities and parking lots have also brought in RFID systems to help them offer faster, easier and more user-friendly services. As a matter of fact, potential applications are everywhere [57]. Such features as great convenience, low cost, and wide applicability will soon make RFID systems the most pervasive microchips in history [57]. However, the wide distribution of RFID systems into modern society may very much likely get the security of both businesses and consumers exposed to threats and risks. For example, businesses may have malicious competitors on the market that collect unprotected RFIDs to gather information illegally, spread false tags to provide wrong information, or even launch denial of service (DOS) attacks against them. On the other hand, as a consumer, it is naturally preferred that the information of the purchase of RFID-tagged products be kept private from outsiders; however, a tag reader at a fixed location can read the content of an un-protected tag, tracing the RFID-tagged product or/and even identifying the person carrying the tagged product. Correlating data collected from multiple tag readers such as their locations and so on can also possibly be used to spy on an individual and track down his/her social interactions. Besides passive eavesdropping and tracking, a thief might use counterfeit tags to fool automated checkout or security systems into accepting wrong information like price, proof of presence or other information.
