Aegis is no ordinary coating; it's an intelligent security layer that transforms any product into a digitally verifiable asset. The process is simple for the user but backed by an advanced system designed to protect against even the most sophisticated counterfeiting attempts.
What is aegis?
More Than Just a Varnish Plate
The essential Layer
The core of aegis's power lies in its unique, microscopic security feature. During the printing process, an advanced security varnish is applied, embedding a distinct digital fingerprint that is invisible to the naked eye. Each application creates an un-copyable signature, making every single item an authentic original and virtually impossible to counterfeit.
Invisible Digital Signature: The varnish contains a digital fingerprint that is not visible to the naked eye.
Diverse Security Features: These features can range from a special molecular structure to a unique pattern of micro-dots.
Un-copyable Signature: Each application creates an un-copyable signature that makes it impossible for counterfeiters to replicate.
Verifying with a verification app - ava
The app uses the device's camera to scan the hidden security features within the aegis coating. The captured data is instantly compared with a secure, cloud-based database of authentic signatures.
The Result: Absolute Trust
Within fractions of a second, the user receives a clear verdict: "Authentic" or "Suspect of Counterfeiting." This turns a complex verification into a simple, reliable process that instantly restores trust between the brand and the customer.
