Security of Oyster Cards
Gareth Davis wrote:
The more the MiFare cards are rolled out round the world then the higher the return to be made from cracking them. Or to put it into perspective, I think it is fair to say that more people will soon be using the MiFare system each day in London alone than used the pay TV system of ITV digital whose smart cards were hacked at great expense (to the hackers). The smartcard/encryption used by ITV digital was the SECA system developed by CANAL+ and used widely throughout Europe on other pay-TV networks. Far more people than the 1.1 million ITV digital subscribers stood to be able to benefit from the system being cracked. |
