Overview
iVerifyIT™ is a new digital authentication software solution based on patented Pelta™ technology. The solution is flexible and can be utilized to strengthen brand protection or as an authentication solution. Any smart phone can become an authentication tool if running the iVerifyIT app. The app distribution is controlled by the brand owner or government agency thus can be used as an internal tool or generally distributed to the public. The solution has 2 key components:
1- Pelta code creation software - serialization or other data is encrypted in a 2nd layer and embedded into 2D Data Matrix or QR barcodes and then printed on high value documents, labels or packaging. The barcodes then can be used for authentication purposes.
2- iVerifyIT - Pagemark mobile app to read and validate Pelta codes. The software supports iOS, Android and Windows platforms. Brand Owners or Government agencies which partner with Pagemark, have a custom version of the app and control distribution.
