MULTI LEVEL SECURITY ARCHITECTURE FOR NFC ENABLED CAR KEYS

- NFC is incorporation of RFID in smartphones offering a large number of services which can make our lives simple. In this paper, we are going to discuss one such innovation known as ‘NFC enabled car keys’. In future we will have cars which will facilitate keyless entry since the key will be present inside the phone and conferred to the car via NFC. It becomes necessary that such a system be secured by multiple authentication steps. The complete system is designed in a manner such that no single fact is sufficient enough for any adversary to drive away the car. Keys and code are distributed so as to make the system more secure. The key manager is involved in the scenario to ease the provision of transferring key Over-The-Air.
