Near-field communication

So once they knew how to do it, they came to us and we very quickly could increase our business in that direction.

Passport identification, a completely different application, right? So many different things like finally NFC with this payment function in your mobile phone, very different applications, always based on more or less the same technology.

So there's a lot of potential in that, but there's a lot of risk if you do it wrongly as well.

But when you started this product, did you imagine that it would have so many applications? No,

So you need to be patient with that.

And you need to very understand what makes you better than the others.

And for me, in my personal career, really the NFC story is kind of this example.

Because NFC is derived out of contactless smart card technology or RFID technology, but it's something new.

Custom RFID and NFC device development.

Theory and PRACTICERFID and NFC technologies are incredibly commonplace in the modern world but what goes into making them? This is the theory and practice behind the technology.

Differences between RFID and NFC systems, their applications, and other natives RFID and NFC are similar communication methods that devices can use to interact with each other.

Two-factor authentication.

A security key is a physical device, often USB or NFC, that provides secure login by verifying your identity during sign-in.

Security Key A password manager stores all your passwords in one encrypted place and can autofill them, so you don't have to remember each one.

Password Manager Your profile picture is the image that represents you on social media or messaging apps, often chosen to reflect your personal brand or mood.

And that time it seemed like very, very, very futuristic because the whole concept of peer to peer payment, what we are doing now versus then it was very theoretical because there were only this was.

only the US and the advanced countries that had started implementing in a very very small manner there was NFC so there were so many different technologies NFC which was near field communication USSD so a lot of things were there in bits and pieces but Was the customer ready at that point to use a phone and pay from their bank account? And the person who is receiving the payment, would he really trust that this person has paid me? So that is what it is.

That was the emotional psyche or I would say the emotional dilemma that users had back then.

But this was a research study.

So if you don't need Wi-Fi, disable it.

If you don't need NFC, disable that.

And validate is disabled because we are shrinking the attack surface.

The more... ways we have enabled or the more connectivity mechanisms, the larger the attack surface, the more threats on our threat model and the more cybersecurity controls we have to put in place.

And once I got that going, and Tim and I were back and forth on this quite a bit.

Tim's doing a lot of NFC work with the stuff that he does at Two Canoes.

So he was helping me out with some of the hardware and some of the other pieces that were required for that.

So once we got tapped to log in working with the wallet passes...

And I was hoping I had this very elaborate app set up.

And that's what you see at the end of the Maxis admin session.

But you don't even technically need an NFC reader to actually sign in through tap to log in on a Mac.

Because of how Apple has done this.
