NFC (Near Field Communication) technology can be used in security operations in several ways:
Access control
NFC tags or smart cards can be used to grant or restrict access to secure areas or facilities. An NFC reader can be installed at the entrance, and an NFC tag or smart card can be used to unlock the door or gate when it is brought close to the reader.
Identity verification
NFC-enabled smart cards or mobile devices can be used to verify a person's identity. The NFC reader can read the unique identifier from the NFC tag or device and compare it to a database of authorised users to determine whether access should be granted.
NFC implants can provide a secure and covert solution for identification and authentication in security operations.
Authentication
NFC-enabled devices can be used to securely authenticate a user. For example, a user can tap their NFC-enabled smartphone to an NFC reader to securely log into a system or app.
Payment security
NFC-enabled payment cards and mobile devices can be used for secure, contactless transactions. When a user taps their device or card to an NFC reader, the payment information is transmitted securely over the NFC connection.
Asset tracking
NFC tags can be attached to valuable assets, such as equipment or tools, to track their location and usage. An NFC reader can be used to read the unique identifier from the tag and determine the location and status of the asset.
Overall, NFC technology can provide a secure, convenient, and easy-to-use solution for various security operations, such as access control, identity verification, authentication, payment security, and asset tracking.
NFC implants

NFC implants can provide a secure and covert solution for identification and authentication in security operations. However, there are potential risks associated with implantable NFC devices, such as the risk of implant failure or infection, privacy concerns, and the need for specialized medical procedures to implant the device. It's important to carefully consider these risks before using NFC implants for security operations.
Emergency transmission
NFC tags hidden in clothing or implants can be programmed to perform a variety of tasks such as sending a GPS or SOS message to a pre-programmed contact via SMS or email.
So as you can see there are a variety of uses for NFC technology whether it is used for access control or operational uses. We can advise on a number of solutions according to your mission requirements.
