Could the VeriChip help secure office buildings and nuclear power plants?
No. Though the VeriChip Corporation has marketed its product as a way to secure sensitive facilities like nuclear plants, it would be a very bad idea. As discussed earlier, a criminal could rather easily exploit the vulnerabilities of a VeriChip-based security system to duplicate an employee’s chip signal and gain access to a secure facility. For this reason, it is inadvisable to use a VeriChip implant device for building access or other security purposes.
