How secure is a rfid-locked door?
I was wondering how secure is to have my house front door locked with a rfid lock. If I implant a rfid transponder on my hand and go around with it is possibile that someone steals the code from my rfid tag and use it to enter in my house? How can I keep my code secure?

Due to the limited read range of the RFID, and the simple the ignorance to the fact that you have an implant in the first place is enough to keep the system safe. There really isn't any chance that they could steal the code, and even if they did, they wouldn't know what to do with it.
However, if someone really wanted to get into your house, they could always just kick in the lock or break a window.
I considered an RFID lock until I remembered that all break-ins around here occurred via kicked-in door. The lock won't really stop that sort of thing.
My point is best case you have no 1st floor Windows a solid oak door with a chain link and RFID lock and maybe even a deadbolt and hey you may be able to stop the door from opening or some one getting in.
I say get a brace for the top and bottom of the door and that sucker will never open. :)
Lesson is the tech will last the wood/glass won't.
Someone ripped the siding off the house next to the door, made it through the wall between two edges of sheets of poorly installed plywood, through insulation, and between two studs and through sheet rock within 10 minutes. :l

The door wasn't the problem. Houses just sometimes aren't built to be damage resistant. >~<
As a lock... If it's not identifiable, it's pretty impossible to unlock fairly. A thief who uses a bump key is going to be very out of luck. ^^
Hi,
I'd definitely look into UTS Group. They have a lot of services and products to offer for people in your exact position - and will most likely be able to help with keeping your code secure
