The MIFARE Hack

The MIFARE Classic is the most popular RFID chip, used in public transport as well as cafeterias and other applications. This paper gives an overview of which methods were used to re-engineer the chips, from polishing to analyzing the communication. Within this process, various security weaknesses were discovered. Those allow various attacks, which will be shown in the last part of the paper.

How computational physics is uniting science and revolutionizing society

Computers are now much more than tools for analysis. They provide us with innumerable intellectual challenges, ranging from algorithm development to allowing us to explore novel concepts such as self-organized criticality. Simulational science in particular continues to grow as a major subfield. Three-dimensional studies ranging from fluids to dynamical molecular systems are becoming routine. I...
