How it Works:

DataTrace
Using trace elements we embed a unique authentication foot print into a wide range of products and raw materials. Using our hand held proprietary scanning and cloud technology clients can scan at any location and review aggregated data on any device to detect and respond to counterfeit in their business.

Digital Assurance
Consumers can immediately verify the authenticity of your product by scanning a QR code generated by our authentication software. Consumer assurance delivers brands increased consumer trust, and enable continued engagement with consumers and insights into consumer behaviour.

Smart Labels
A SecureID label provides consumers with a physical symbol of assurance. Our technology embeds tamper evident features into labelling and combined with DataTrace and a QR code enables all the benefits of Digital Assurance.

Outcomes

Global Pharmaceutical Company

Situation
Supply chain compromised in South America with medicinal products counterfeited containing no active ingredients.

Solution
Pharmaceutical company incorporated a DataTrace authentication marking of product containers to enable authentication scanning and verification throughout the supply chain. The DataTrace code contained multiple formulations, one for each product package variation.

DataTrace readers were deployed to authorized inspection personnel to conduct authentication testing of products at specified control points in the supply chain to ensure no compromises.

Outcomes
The authentication solution was successfully implemented and no incidents of counterfeit have been detected in the last 5 years.
