The objective of this paper is to provide a reference source for terms used by the Auto-ID Labs, in the Anti-Counterfeiting White Paper Series. Such terms are commonly used in the security industry, and are now starting to find their way into RFID applications. While the terms are well defined in the security industry, RFID Engineers need to have a common understanding. Papers in the white series have been reviewed, and when a term is used that is not contained either within ISO 19762 - Harmonized vocabulary, for RFID related terms, or EPCglobal’s Tag/Reader Security Glossary (26th April 2006), a definition is provided in this document.
After a trademark dispute, the EPC Prototyping Platform is now called "Fosstrak" (previously Accada). Fosstrak stands for "free and open source software for track and trace".
