Kena Kai Wallets
California-based Kena Kai has launched a new line of DataSafe Wallets and Passport Wallets specifically designed to thwart identity theft. These patent-pending and stylish Italian leather wallets utilize multiple layers of radio frequency (RF) shielding material to protect the millions of new wireless credit cards and “ePassports” that will be issued this year. Credit cards have become an integral part in today’s society. With the recent introduction of credit cards and passports that contain an electronic wireless chip, sometimes referred to as an RFID (radio frequency identification) chip, these critical and very personal tools in our daily life are now at risk. With most advances in technology come trade-offs and this is no exception. While these new cards and passports offer greater convenience, they are also susceptible to “skimming” – the wireless access and/or copying of personal information stored on these cards – from a distance.
