During a security assessment, staff badges rely on RFID for building entry. You suspect that unauthorized individuals can intercept badge data from outside. Which plan would help confirm an extended signal range?
Obtain product details from the badge supplier to check its built-in encryption
Review administrative manuals for instructions that could limit external signal leakage
Perform live scanning outside the facility using a reader and antenna to detect data
Swap the original reader with another that has optional security features
Using a reader with an external antenna outside the premises directly tests how far the signals travel. Reviewing documents, switching devices, or focusing on firmware details does not show whether an external party can capture credentials.
