(Main)Information technology - Privacy capability features of current RFID technologies
Information technology - Privacy capability features of current RFID technologies
The scope of the Technical Report is to identify technical characteristics of particular RFID air interface protocols that need to be taken into consideration by operators of RFID systems in undertaking their privacy impact assessment. It also provides information for those operators who provide RFID-tagged items that are likely to be read by customers or other organisations.
This Technical Report provides detailed privacy and security characteristics that apply to products that are compliant with specific air interface protocols, and also to variant models that comply with such standards.
The Technical Report also identifies proprietary privacy and security features which have been added to tags, which are problematic of being implemented in open systems which depend on interoperability between different devices. Such proprietary solutions, whilst being technically sound, in fact impede interoperability. The gap analysis thus identified can be used to encourage greater standardization.

Informacijska tehnologija - Zmogljivost zaščite osebnih podatkov pri današnjih tehnologijah RFID
Standard CEN/TR 16672 določa tehnične lastnosti posameznih protokolov radijskega vmesnika RFID, ki jih morajo upoštevati izvajalci sistemov RFID pri ocenjevanju vpliva na zaščito osebnih podatkov. Prav tako zagotavlja informacije za tiste izvajalce, ki zagotavljajo elemente, označene z RFID, ki jih utegnejo prebrati stranke ali druge organizacije. To tehnično poročilo zagotavlja podrobne lastnosti zasebnosti in varnosti, ki veljajo za izdelke, skladne z določenimi protokoli radijskega vmesnika, in različice modelov, ki so v skladu s temi standardi. To tehnično poročilo prav tako določa lastnosti lastniške zasebnosti in varnosti, ki so dodane oznakam, kar je problematično pri uporabi v odprtih sistemih, ki so odvisni od medoperabilnosti različnih naprav. Takšne lastniške rešitve so tehnično ustrezne, vendar ovirajo medoperabilnost. Analiza tako odkritih vrzeli se lahko uporabi za spodbujanje večje standardizacije.

Introduction
In response to the growing deployment of RFID systems in Europe, the European Commission published in
2007 the Communication COM (2007) 96 ‘RFID in Europe: steps towards a policy framework’. This
Communication proposed steps which needed to be taken to reduce barriers to adoption of RFID whilst
respecting the basic legal framework safeguarding fundamental values such as health, environment, data
protection, privacy and security.
In December 2008, the European Commission addressed Mandate M/436 to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the
field of ICT as applied to RFID systems. The Mandate M/436 was accepted by the ESOs in the first months of
2009. The Mandate addresses the data protection, privacy and information aspects of RFID, and is being
executed in two phases. Phase 1, completed in May 2011, identified the work needed to produce a complete
framework of future RFID standards. The Phase 1 results are contained in the ETSI Technical Report TR 187
020, which was published in May 2011.
Phase 2 is concerned with the execution of the standardisation work programme identified in the first phase.
This Technical Report provides privacy and security characteristics that apply to the relevant standards.
Furthermore it provides an overview of these standards and their respective support of the described features.
