Anatomy of a secure solution

Drawing on extensive experience in chemistry and material sciences, application engineering, and detectors and analytics, Microtrace developed an integrated and optimized active packaging platform for optimal authentication results.

Microtrace’s anti-counterfeit packaging configuration employs a proprietary, two-part authentication unique identifier, comprised of a taggant signature and encrypted data string. This unique identifier is read with a detection system featuring a handheld spectrometer and mobile application. Sophisticated AI and analytical methodologies process the taggant signature and data string, generating real-time reporting that offers unparalleled insights into product usage and potential counterfeiting.

Unique identifier

Taggant signatures

Spectral Taggant signatures are available as security labels or taggant transfers. For projects requiring a taggant security ink, Microtrace licenses proprietary taggant inks and print specifications. 

Encrypted data string

Pairing taggant signatures with an encrypted data string - delivered as an encrypted barcode or encrypted RFID & NFC tag - enables two-part authentication for greater security.

  • QR codes are delivered as pre-printed labels or as a digital file for your printer
  • Digital files are available for the creation of RFID and NFC tags.

Detection system

Mobile application

Microtrace's mobile application is customized for your specific needs, from private labeling to functionality like time stamp, user ID and geographic location. This anti-counterfeit solution enables instant field validation without constant internet access, utilizing traditional 2D barcode software authentication with error correction advantages. 

Detector and mobile application

Microtrace’s handheld spectrometer, when paired with our customizable mobile application, authenticates taggant signatures. This powerful combination offers unparalleled security for product validation and delivers several key advantages: 

  • Intuitive user interface for easy operation
  • Cost-effective implementation
  • Proprietary technologies resistant to counterfeiting attempts
  • Centralized data consolidation from field detectors for comprehensive reporting

This integrated approach ensures efficient, reliable and secure product authentication while providing valuable insights for your business.

Integration with smart devices

The Summit Authentication Platform seamlessly integrates into your Smart Device and Consumable System. This can be achieved a variety of methods, including smart camera integration capable of verifying both the spectral taggant signature and encrypted data string in a single read. This eliminates the need for separate handheld readers and mobile apps, providing  automated live reporting and product usage insights.

AI cloud

AI-driven cloud analysis

Microtrace's patent-pending Alerion™ Classification Technology surpasses conventional classification methods. Data is processed real-time, with models dynamically refined for continuous improvement. The system allows for the addition of new classes, optimizing existing ones, and creating warning thresholds, resulting in actionable market and consumer intelligence.
