The Switzerland-based firm has already applied a different form of Cryptoglyph as a hidden way to mark and protect pharmaceutical and other packaging from counterfeiting.
AlpVision claims that the parent Cryptoglyph is the only security process in the world providing an invisible marking with standard ink and standard printing processes (offset, rotogravure, flexo, laser, inkjet, etc).
Therefore, Cryptoglyph can be easily integrated into any current packaging production line or any document processing workflow before printing.
The Cryptoglyph visible pattern consists of a multitude of tiny little dots which resist multiple photocopy passes.
AlpVision claims that the dots enable immediate identification of both the source and the recipient of the document, even if only a fraction of the document is available.
