Abstract/Artist Statement
The University of the Pacific has always trusted the One Card office to issue IDs and to prevent their fraudulent use. Since ID cards are used for multiple purposes, such as financial transactions and building/room access, it is important to know that there are security measures to help protect those who use them. The One Card Security Assessment project will identify potential flaws in the One Card office’s security implementations. The assessment be conducted in will multiple phases. First, it will assess how securely the information on the ID cards themselves is stored. Second, it will determine what is necessary to duplicate the ID cards. Third the potential for possible corruption in the One Card database to allow “special” cards to access any ID card accessible area will be investigated. The final step, after identifying security lapses, will be to determine measures to correct them.
