The security of RFID readers with IDS/IPS solution using Raspberry Pi

This paper presents developed detection rules for LLRP (Low Level Reader Protocol) interface, implementation of IDS (Intrusion Detection System) and IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) solution for UHF (Ultra High Frequency) RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) reader using Raspberry Pi 3. Developed security solution is used for securing current RFID readers supporting LLRP. The paper also deals with a comparison of IPS/IDS solutions and subsequently selection of the appropriate one for the implementation using Raspberry Pi. Main contribution is the securing of RFID readers which are usually available without any encryption support on the market. The functionality is tested with software metasploit framework.
