Electromagnetic (EM) attacks are essentially power monitoring attacks with a further magnetic component, adding depth and detail to the signals being analyzed.
EM attack methods combine power monitoring attacks with monitoring of the magnetic spectrum at various distances. Today’s low-power devices usually require that an attacker be near the device being monitored at least once to install monitoring hardware.
An example of an Electromagnetic attack at consumer level is Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) skimming, which can be done from a few feet away. This is something to consider now that contactless bank cards and travel permits are commonplace.

Many banks are quite happy to provide RFID sleeves for their customers' credit and debit cards.
Also, it's very easy to find sources for RF-blocking wallets which aren't significantly more expensive than their radio-transparent equivalents. They make very thoughtful gifts for close friends and relatives.
