SecureRF's Lime Tag Gets Noticed

Tuesday, April 10, 2007

“Unlike other solutions in the industry that simply put encrypted data on a tag, making them easily copied or cloned, our technology makes the tag an active participant in authenticating and protecting its contents,” said SecureRF CEO, Louis Parks, upon the release of the company’s new Lime Tag for the pharmaceutical market.

It ain’t no lemon, either.

SecureRF says this new tag authenticates, encrypts data and monitors product temperature. Lime, by the way, stands for “lightweight multistream encryption tag”. [end] 

The Basque National Health System has launched a neonatal security system designed to monitor and protect new-born infants using RFID technology.

When a pregnant woman is admitted to hospital, she is provided a tag with a unique identification which can be read in all the maternity zones. When the baby is born, an RFID tag specially designed for the new born is fitted to its ankle. The device monitors the infant 24 hours a day, detecting unauthorized movements, registering entries and exits to and from and enabling immediate location information.
