Abstract
A method and an apparatus utilizing the RFID technology for the login security of a computing device are disclosed. The computing device includes a processing unit, an RFID reader, and a memory. The RFID reader is coupled to the processing unit for communicating with an external RFID tag in which a user data is stored. The memory is coupled to the processing unit for storing a login data. The RFID reader reads the user data from the RFID tag and the processing unit compares the user data with the login data. If the user data matches the login data, the processing unit allows the computing device to be accessed.
