WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MIKOH Corporation Limited (ASX: MIK), a world leading developer and a key patent innovator of authentication and tamper detection technologies, announced today that it will be taking a leading role in the RFID Security Alliance. As part of this position, Neil Mitchell, MIKOH’s vice president of marketing has been formally accepted as vice chairman of the organization.

The RFID Security Alliance is the de facto authoritative organization regarding the subject of security as it applies to the implementation of RFID systems.
