The Workshop on RFID Security 2006 focuses on approaches to solve security issues in advanced contactless technologies like RFID systems. It stresses implementation aspects imposed by resource constraints.

RFID security issues are a challenge for RFID technologies to become an enabling technology for the Internet of things. The Workshop on RFID Security 2006 will help to bridge the gap between cryptographic researchers and RFID developers. Therefore, submissions both from academia and industry are appreciated.

Topics of the workshop include but are not limited to:

	• New applications for secure RFID systems
	• Privacy-enhancing techniques for RFID
	• Cryptographic protocols for RFID
	¤ Authentication
	¤ Key update
	¤ Scalability issues
	• Integration of secure RFID systems
	¤ Middleware and security
	¤ (Public-key) Infrastructures
	•  Resource-efficient implementation of cryptography
	¤ Small-footprint hardware
	¤ Low-power architectures

Workshop Proceedings:
There will be no formal proceedings. Participants of the workshop receive a printed handout. Accepted articles can be published elsewhere without constriction.
