Dtylish RFID wallet full of 3D printing gadgets now on Kickstarter
The future is here… and there’s an RFID tag embedded in it. Now that such a large number of ID and credit cards are making use of radio-frequency identification technology, owners of those cards are able to go through a range of identification checks with minimal effort. However, with ease comes danger: RFID chips, often full of sensitive data, are vulnerable to a particular form of data theft known as RFID skimming. Thieves can obtain RFID readers, which are able to read the RFID information stored in your wallet, without making any physical contact. Once the data is in the wrong hands, well… it’s best not to imagine what comes next.
