可使用近距離無線支付的信用卡

The majority of credit and debit cards are fitted with Near Field Communication chips, a type of RFID tech Digital forensic firm Disklabs has used similar technology to make a wallet, which, like the Betabrand jeans, blocks RFID signals.

大部分的信用卡和借記卡都有近距離無線通訊的芯片，這是一種射頻識別技術。數字取證公司Disklabs使用類似的技術，使錢包像Betabrand的牛仔褲一樣能夠屏蔽射頻識別信號。

"There is technology readily available for anyone to snatch other people's credit and debit card data within seconds," said Disklabs boss Simon Steggles.

Disklabs公司老板西蒙·斯塔格勒表示，“如今已有技術能使任何人在幾秒內竊取他人的銀行卡數據。”

"These apps simply copy the card with all the information on it."

“那些應用能輕而易舉地復制卡里面的所有的信息。”

His firm also designs "faraday" bags which block mobile signals. Such bags are often used by police now to store mobile phones taken from suspects.

他的公司也設計了“法拉第”包，能夠屏蔽手機信號。現在，警察常使用這種包來裝從疑犯手中得到的手機。

Last month the BBC reported that several police forces around the country had admitted that some mobile phones confiscated from suspects had been remotely wiped because they had not been stored in a secure way.

上月，BBC報道，幾名警察承認一些從嫌犯手中沒收的手機已經被人從遠程將數據抹去，因為這些手機的存放方式不夠安全。
