Product focus: Tamper-evident RFID tags

Smart&Secure technology fights product counterfeiting, diversion, and tampering in the supply chain at a 10% premium to typical RFID tags.

Smart&Secure is a proprietary tamper-evident RFID technology from Mikoh Corp. to maintain product security in the supply chain. It is not a visual feature, but is linked to the RFID tag's functionality. In its simplest format, it disables a RFID tag if it is tampered with or removed. It is appropriate to fight counterfeiting, product substitution, theft, and tampering. It can also be used as a tamper-evident seal.

Smart&Secure works seamlessly and transparently with existing RFID technology and infrastructure such as reader-antennas, according to Mikoh chief technology officer Peter Atherton. He notes that RFID deployments can be retrofit to use Smart&Secure.
