2. Case Project 13-3: RFID Passports

Although several nations use RFID technology with their paper passports, there was a concern initially voiced that unauthorized individuals could intercept these transmissions and use them in nefarious ways against the passport holders. In response the United States made modifications to the RFID technology in its passports. Research RFID technology in passports, and particularly note the changes the United States made to make them more secure. In your opinion, are these additional security protections adequate? Why or why not? Write a one-page paper on RFID passports.
