As the world quickly progresses to a mobile way of doing things, new brilliant mobile apps keep popping up just like mushrooms after the rain - along with their "toxic" side effects... Vulnerabilities related to NFC Data Exchange
According to IEEE "The number of use cases and real applications around NFC and NFC Data Exchange Format (NDEF) technology increases continuously. However, existing applications provide hardly any protection against (malicious) manipulation of NDEF data. Digital signatures are a means of providing authenticity and integrity of NDEF data."
ComSignTrust™, a world leader in developing highly secure, qualified, PKI-based digital signature solutions, provides users with the ability to easily sign and lock any type of file (source code, doc, excel, voice, image, video, XML, etc.) anywhere, using any device - including mobile. The file/code is encrypted and trusted by a third-party Certified Authority, ensuring signer authentication and data integrity, preventing fraud and business disruption.
One of the company's newest developments is a first of its kind - a PKI NFC-based mobile digital signature solution which ensures a highly secure mobile signature workflow. The solution is integrated to the advanced Gemalto IDGo card with its dual-function capabilities NFC/Card-Reader and may be used with every operating system. The NFC mobile solution can easily and seamlessly be integrated to a wide range of NFC and NDEF technologies, providing them with a secure solution for mobile applications in very short time.
