Un consultant en matière allemand d'intrus et de sécurité, Lukas Grunwald, a encore démontré comment les gouvernements imposent la technologie peu sûre qui met notre sécurité, identité et intimité en danger, tout en prétendant fournir l'exact vis-à-vis de.
Les passeports biométriques contenant les morceaux fortement controversés de RFID se sont avérés bien plus vulnérables qu'ont pensé la première fois car Grunwald parvenu pour se briser deux lecteurs et états de passeport il pourrait être possible pour reprogrammer des lecteurs pour approuver les passeports forgés ou expirés. The exploit will also allow someone to access, hijack and clone a passport holder’s fingerprint, a truly shocking revelation.
It is also possible to create false fingerprints to fool the system but officials bury their head in the sand and remain silent on the issue.
RFID enabled biometric passports were specifically introduced, or so we are told, to prevent passport forgery and increase national security but as Grunwald has discovered, they actually reduce security and provide hackers and identity thieves with a new set of tools to compromise our welfar and allow hackers to override the computer system.
Grunwald stated: “The whole passport design is totally brain damaged, from my point of view all of these RFID passports are a huge waste of money. They’re not increasing security at all.”
Last year he demonstrated how easy it is to clone passports.
“If you’re able to crash something you are most likely able to exploit it, I predict that most of the vendors are using off-the-shelf (software) libraries for decoding the JPEG2000 images,” says Grunwald, meaning all airports are susceptible to the hack.
The U.S. State Department had no comment, a telling sign.
