Abstract
A system for forensic encryption may be described. This system may include: a 2D barcode pattern comprising a plurality of standard 2D barcode elements printed in a region on a printable surface, and which is affixed to a unique product; and at least one glyph printed within the area of the 2D barcode pattern; wherein the at least one glyph is generated from information identifying the unique product; and wherein the 2D standard barcode elements may be decoded by a first 2D barcode scanner to yield product information, and wherein a second scan is done by a user, to verify if the label in hand corresponds to the glyph shown on screen. In another embodiment, the 2D barcode pattern including the at least one glyph may be decoded by a second 2D barcode scanner to yield different product information.
