Abstract

A system for enhancing security printing includes a segmentation system, a secure database in operative communication with the segmentation system, a secure registry in selective operative communication with the segmentation system, and an analysis system in operative communication with the segmentation system and the secure database, and in selective operative communication with the secure registry. The segmentation system performs zoning analysis on a scanned image to identifying a list of regions in the image. The secure database stores at least one of i) a template, or ii) prior zoning output specification. The secure registry stores region of interest information and information pertaining to strategies for identifying a region of interest. The analysis system identifies the region of interest utilizing at least one of the secure database or the secure registry.
