The company I work in switched to a new building, and we have those stupid doors with RFID cards on them. I’d be damned if I’m going walk with that I’m-working-in-hightech-company-card dangling of my belt. I wonder if there is a way for me to use my phone for credentials. I tried searching for it, and all I could find is ways for me to use the phone in order to copy the info from one card to another.

So is it somehow possible?

    I am working on this for one of my customers. RFID, BLE and NFC are different technologies. If the company has a compatible reader, then they can purchase credentials for your smart phone. HID ands Schlage are the 2 large players in the market. There are other manufacturers, and some systems are already Bluetooth (BLE) only.

    Some RFID cards can be cloned, but not all. Some readers push data to the cards, which are then pushed from the card to other readers.
