Forensic Technologies - Invisible/Off-Site Detection

Encrypted Elemental Taggants (Forensic On-Site Equipment Available)
 
Layered solutions combine overt, covert and/or forensic measures, multiple measures within identification classes and combinations thereof.  

Periodic substitution of security measures achieves randomness and therefore further enhances anti-counterfeiting.

Typical layered solution examples include:

Color-Shift (Overt) + UV-Vis (Covert)
Microparticles (Overt) + IR Taggant (Covert)
UV-Vis (Covert) +  IR Taggant (Covert )
