The total global economic and social impacts of counterfeit and pirated products more than double since 2008, due in part to rapid increases in physical counterfeiting and piracy. This trend has driven strong demand for the new effective technologies ensuring brand protection and product integrity and providing inexpensive integration with the existing Track and Trace systems.
To address this challenge, 2DTG has developed a comprehensive strategy and introduced cost effective solution for Brand Protection, based on its Data Matrix Decoding/Encoding software and patented Barcode Authentication technology.
Data Matrix Protection/Security Suite (DMPS) represents two prime components of this strategy:
Authentication and/or Encryption
It consists of two separate SDKs:
- DMPS_E - Encoding library and Demo applications (interfaced to Windows 64) - has a proprietary built-in mechanism allowing to enable Data Matrix Authentication and to encrypt it, if required, in addition to the regular data encoding, and
- DMPS_D - Decoding library and Demo applications - checks barcode for authenticity while extracting the encoded information after symbol decryption; interfaced to Windows 64, Linux 64, Android 8.0 and higher, embedded platforms, designed for industrial grade applications.
Depending on a project, the programs can be used either together or separately. In a “Track and Trace” system, for example, the encoding software can be used at “manufacturing end” and the decoding software – at the “receiving end”.
Trial versions of the DMPS_E Encoder and DMPS_D Decoder downloadable from this page are fully functional but limited to 30 days after the first run.
