RFID blocking keychain

Postby jaime_lion » 21 Mar 2019 18:49

Not sure if this is in the right place. But I am looking for an rfid blocking keychain. I am looking for one that can just fit over my fob itself and not take up much room. My keyfob looks like this one. I do not know anything else than what it looks like. I have asked what frequency it runs on and stuff but my management has no idea. At the moment I rarely carry my fob when I am out and I just buzz myself into my building with the door buzzer system.

Thanks for the help.

you can try Amazon and type in key fob rfid blocking and it comes up with a bunch of little pouches and stuff.

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=key+fob+rfid+blocking


here's an example: https://www.amazon.com/Niceline-Blocker ... 07KX3X51Z/

and here is a small pouch on ebay, shipping from China

I have tried amazon etc before and all of those are to big. I want something that just covers the key it self and takes up very little room.

Unfortunately the thing you are asking for doesn't seem to exist. I have the same HID prox fob on my keys it is less than 1 inch by 1 inch. Buy one of the faraday pouches that are meant to put your entire keys into and cut it down and sew your own little pouch. get creative, not every solution is purchased off the shelf. here's a site for making your own pouches and where to get the material: https://killyourphone.com/

What is this fob for? your apt building? is there some sort of threat of someone stealing your fob data and replaying it to get into your building? you know those attacks arent common place right?

Even if you have a blocker on your key fob, the other people getting in the building probably don't care about security the way you do, and they'll get their fob read by an attacker who will get in using their fob.

If you "rarely carry my fob when I am out and I just buzz myself into my building with the door buzzer system" then why are you so concerned with having something to block your RFID fob which you are rarely keeping on your person?

The issue seems to be moot since you rarely have the fob with you?

Could you please explain what your actual concern really is please ?
