Security & Identification overview

Wherever there is a need to clearly identify people, systems, individual elements or even consumables, from printer cartridges or blood supplies, casino chips or immobilisers in cars to secure data communication in most cases RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) systems are used.

Security and identification applications examples are:

• Consumer: RFID technology offers increased protection against copying and tampering. Technology opens up new and innovative ways to interact with consumer goods from different corners.
• Industrial: In many areas of industry RFID is seen as a solution for capturing the data. Industrial applications factors such as high mechanical demands, dirt and frequent position changes make the use of barcodes impracticable.
• Livestock: Innovative livestock ID products are fully interoperable with standardized components and systems
• Medical: A central element of many medical devices is using wireless service interface for data transfer to and from the device without opening it. Plugs create massive problems in terms of hygiene and cleaning.
• Metering: Security and Authentication are mandatory for new age metering markets to secure current needs of smart grid networks including future development of renewable energies.
