Time-Efficient Cloning Attacks Identification in Large-Scale RFID Systems

الملخص EN

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an emerging technology for electronic labeling of objects for the purpose of automatically identifying, categorizing, locating, and tracking the objects.

But in their current form RFID systems are susceptible to cloning attacks that seriously threaten RFID applications but are hard to prevent.

Existing protocols aimed at detecting whether there are cloning attacks in single-reader RFID systems.

In this paper, we investigate the cloning attacks identification in the multireader scenario and first propose a time-efficient protocol, called the time-efficient Cloning Attacks Identification Protocol (CAIP) to identify all cloned tags in multireaders RFID systems.

We evaluate the performance of CAIP through extensive simulations.

The results show that CAIP can identify all the cloned tags in large-scale RFID systems fairly fast with required accuracy.
