Flipper Zero / RFID Cloning Threats
How it works
Emerging threat where inexpensive consumer devices like Flipper Zero clone RFID access cards, casino chips, or employee badges—enabling unauthorized access or chip counterfeiting. Attackers use Flipper Zero or similar tools to read and clone low-frequency RFID badges. Cloned cards allow unauthorized access to restricted areas. In theory, similar attacks could target older RFID chip systems or access control badges used by casino personnel.
On the record
Security researchers have demonstrated RFID cloning against casino access systems. eConnect’s eClear system specifically markets facial recognition as “unspoofable” compared to RFID vulnerabilities.
