A customer is hurt by a counterfeit sold under your name, and the lawsuit names your brand first, whether or not the product was ever yours.
Anti-Counterfeiting Solution
Anti-Counterfeiting Solution for Brands
We deliver layered product verification on the Smart Epsilon platform, visible and hidden, working together, so a counterfeit doesn't just need to look right. It needs to beat defenses it can't see, let alone study.
Problem
What a Single Counterfeit Actually Costs You
A shipment gets held at customs for weeks while a real counterfeit slips through somewhere else, because nobody could verify it fast enough.
A distributor quietly switches to a cheaper fake, and the channel starts choosing counterfeit over loyalty.
One counterfeit batch gets caught, and three months later another surfaces from the same source, because the leak itself was never closed.
Solution
Product Authentication Delivered as Three Simultaneous Layers
As a counterfeit detection technology company, this is what we actually deploy: three layers working at the same time, not in order.
Overt:
A visible, no-device verification layer anyone can check on the spot, before a single scan happens.
Covert:
A second layer, deliberately undisclosed. Publishing how it works would defeat the purpose, so we don't.
Forensic:
Disclosed to no one outside a verified legal or regulatory request, held in reserve for when every other layer is in question.
A consumer-facing QR code verification and authentication solution sits on top of all three, fast for the layer that's actually shown. The two layers that aren't shown are exactly what make the first one hard to fake.
Impact
| Feature | The Problem It Solves | The Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Three-layer verification | Single-method authentication gives a counterfeiter one thing to study and copy | A counterfeiter can only ever see one of three defenses |
| Visible security layer | Consumers and retailers have no way to check authenticity before scanning anything | Instant, no-device verification at the point of sale |
| Undisclosed covert & forensic layers | Once a method is public, it's only a matter of time before it's copied | Protection that can't be reverse-engineered |
| QR-based verification | Verifying authenticity feels technical or requires a specialized app | Any smartphone camera, no app required |
| Root-cause investigation | Stopping one fake batch doesn't close the leak it came from | The entry point identified and closed |
Proof
What Layered Protection Looks Like at Scale
A single overt mark is easy to fake once it's public. Three layers, two of them undisclosed, is what has held up across 200+ implementations, in industries where a copied product isn't a minor inconvenience but a liability claim waiting to happen.

FAQ
Anti-Counterfeiting Solutions: Frequently Asked Questions
Can holograms or visible security marks be copied?
Basic overt marks can be replicated with enough effort, that's exactly why the visible layer is one of three, not the whole defense. The other two are undisclosed by design.
Why won't you explain how the hidden layers work?
Because that explanation is the one thing a counterfeiter actually needs. Every credible security vendor holds this back, and we're not an exception.
Do we need new packaging or printing hardware?
No. All three layers integrate into your existing packaging workflow.
What happens once a counterfeit is confirmed?
Beyond flagging it, we investigate where it entered your supply chain, so the response addresses the source, not just the one batch.
