Abstract

The invention relates to a security element in the form of a flexible, multilayer film body and to an identification system comprising a security element of this type. The security element has a receiving unit (61) for receiving an electromagnetic verification signal (7) containing a specific coding from a verification device, an output unit (66) for outputting an enable signal, and an electronic release system (63, 64, 65) having active and/or passive organic components. The electronic release system (63, 64, 65) checks whether or not a signal received by the receiving unit contains the specific coding, and drives the output unit (66) for outputting the enable signal if the signal received by the receiving unit (61) contains the specific coding.
