An efficient and secure RFID protocol with ownership transfer

The Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is used more and more widely nowadays. Therefore, security of RFID systems definitely becomes an important issue. Lots of security protocols of RFID systems have been proposed. In this paper, we analyze previous RFID protocols and point out a weakness of a protocol. Moreover, we propose an RFID protocol with ownership transfer achieving properties of efficiency, scalability and security.
