Background|

With the development of the society, business credit becomes an important reference of economic activities. Anti-counterfeiting technology enters a new era with the development of technology. To secure the business equity of lawful producers, anti-counterfeiting technology has evolved through stages of packing, printing ink, paper, printing (including laser), physical anti-counterfeiting, biologic anti-counterfeiting, structural anti-counterfeiting as well as digital (and short message) anti-counterfeiting etc. Now, anti-counterfeiting need not only offer high intensity protection, but also record commodity information in detail and combine actual application demands with logistics. So article anti-counterfeiting chip technology emerges. It will replace traditional anti-counterfeiting technology to be the mainstream.

Features of Solution|

  • Difficult to Counterfeit: chip anti-counterfeiting features advanced technology and multiple encryption methods. It is almost impossible to be counterfeited.
  • Flexible Allocation of Product Information: embedded chip memory. The manufacturer can define and write in product information itself. Fully meet complex requirements during enterprise production informatization.
  • Tight Combination with Other Systems: Convenient reading of product information. Enable the anti-counterfeiting system to connect seamlessly in real time with other informatization systems such as logistics, sales and statistics etc. Reduce labor intensity distinctly.
  • Comprehensive and Secure Technical Instruments: this anti-counterfeiting system combines technical instruments such as integrated circuit, radio frequency, encryption and short message etc. to ensure the ease to use as well as advancement and security of the whole system.
  • Various and Endurable Packing Forms: Vendors can adopt various packing forms according to products. It can avoid wear and tear caused by reuse, featuring super applicability and endurance.

Overview of System|

Tongfang article anti-counterfeiting system includes issuance system, RFID, identifier and identifier verification system.

  • The issuance system includes issuance software and hardware machines. The issuance system software stores the basic information of article into RFID in form of ciphertext through hardware machine.
  • Every article has a unique RFID, with related information stored in form of ciphertext. Verification of anti-counterfeiting is that of electronic tag.
  • The identifier is the machine for the user to the identify electronic lag. Verification of the identifier itself can be performed on short message platform and with identifier.

Comparisons between Anti-counterfeiting Technologies|

  Traditional anti-counterfeiting technology Anti-counterfeiting technology of Tongfang Microelectronics Chip Short message anti-counterfeiting technology
Applicable areas any any Use China Mobile and Unicom's full network short message number, applicable all around China
anti-counterfeiting cost high or low identifier costs, no operation cost a certain cost for the manufacturer of the commodity. Fit for commodities with higher value Low. The handset fee for short message is low and charges of inquiry and operation are shared by the business and the consumer
anti-counterfeiting discipline Adopt technologies such as laser, fluorescence, magnetism, temperature change. Bind the anti-counterfeiting identifier with the product after completion of production. All identifiers are the same Identify with anti-counterfeiting electronic tag technology and specific devices. It is difficult and costly to counterfeit Bind the commodity with a unique encryption code. All identification codes are different and offer no clues.
Identification methods Many. Most use visual or simple articles (e.g. lighter) Identify with the specific device Send the anti-counterfeiting code to the short message anti-counterfeiting number, and then the system returns inquiry result through short message
Advantages and disadvantages Advantage: consumers needn't pay for identification Advantage 1: consumers needn't pay for identification Advantage: codes are all different identification codes and the arithmetic is secret. It is impossible to counterfeit in large scope
Disadvantage 1: the identification standards are relatively blurred. Identification methods and comparison are needed. Advantage 2: data are protected with key and transmitted in form of ciphertext. It is impossible to replicate the anti-counterfeiting tag Disadvantage 1: the actual inquiry rate is low. Can be reused
Disadvantage 2: All identifiers are the same, easy to be counterfeited in large scope Advantage 3: can be tested for many times. It can be destroyed by using and then impossible to be reused Disadvantage 2: the system is not easy to be inquired for many times, and even easy to breakdown in cases of attacks. It has operation vulnerability.
Disadvantage: the tag cost is relatively high. Large investment in the system and need of specific devices for identification
Operation system none Need add anti-counterfeiting tag card technology to production links. No need of after-sales maintenance The system need access SP specific gateway, requiring extra operation system maintenance
