RFID鈔票之隱私保護機制

Privacy Protection Scheme in RFID-enabled Banknotes

為了防止偽鈔及洗錢，歐盟中央銀行 (ECB) 和日本政府曾分別計畫在歐元和日元中嵌入RFID電子標籤。而在2003年Ari Juels及Ravikanth Pappu首先提出一個 RFID在歐元之應用機制，但2004年Gildas Avoine則指出該機制所面臨的一些威脅與攻擊，卻未提出任何改進機制。本論文將針對RFID電子標籤嵌入於鈔票後所可能產生的相關隱私權保護議題加以探討，並提出一個加強RFID鈔票隱私保護的改進機制。

In order to anti-counterfeiting and anti-laundering, the European Central Bank (ECB) and Japanese government have disclosed plans to incorporate Radio Frequency ID (RFID) tags into Euro banknotes and Yan notes, respectively. At 2003, Ari Juels and Ravikanth Pap-Pu proposed a cryptographic banknote protection scheme in Euro RFID-enabled banknotes. But at 2004, Gildas Avoine introduced several attacks that can be performed on the Juels Pappu banknote protection scheme. However, Gildas Avoine does not propose any improved scheme. In the paper, we describe some privacy issues in RFID-enabled banknotes, and propose an improved privacy protection scheme.
