Security problems and countermeasures against attacks in NFC

Abstract

Near Field Communication (NFC) technology is widely used due to its ease of use. However, NFC is vulnerable to security attacks such as man-in-the-middle; denial of service (DOS), etc. These attacks lead to the leakage of important user data, which can affect any organization that uses NFC applications and technologies. This article discusses NFC vulnerabilities and different types of NFC attacks. The article also discusses possible solutions that could protect NFC from these security threats.
