1. A radio frequency identification (RFID) reader, comprising:
- an antenna;
a radio configured to interface with the antenna; and
a processor coupled with the radio, the processor configured to;
use the radio and the antenna to transmit, to an RFID transponder, a first communication that includes a first security key, and wherein the RFID transponder is configured to validate the first security key and provide access to contents of a memory included in the RFID transponder in response to a successful validation of the first security key;
use the radio and the antenna to receive, from the RFID transponder, an identifier that is included in the content of the memory of the RFID transponder in response to a successful validation of the first security key by the RFID transponder; and
transmit the identifier to a central database.
