Disadvantages

Along with the start-up costs, there are two other disadvantages. If NFC were used in office buildings, it may begin to blur the lines of office and leisure, due to the ease of taking work home with you just by using your phone. NFC can also be seen as disruptive technology. Technology can be considered disruptive when it makes another technology become obsolete. If we are able to transfer files using our phones, we will no longer need USB's, making them obsolete. The biggest problem with NFC is security. If someone were to lose their phone, the person that found it could have access to a multitude of things including high security office's, debit and credit cards, and potentially someone's NFC integrated household door. Employees will need to be extra careful about where they place their phones.
