Identiv Expands ID-Safe NFC Tag Portfolio with Tamper-Proof Encrypted Authentication
Identiv expanded its ID-Safe portfolio with new tamper-evident and tamper-proof NFC tags supporting encrypted authentication and destructible antennas across pharmaceutical, healthcare, retail, food and beverage, electronics, and smart packaging. Each tag features a unique identity linked to cloud-based systems, enabling real-time product authenticity verification and irreversible tamper detection.
1. Portfolio Expansion and Tag Configurations
Identiv has expanded its ID-Safe product family with advanced HF and NFC tag configurations, including tamper-evident labels that record opening events and tamper-proof tags featuring destructible antennas to prevent removal, reuse, or refilling. Select models integrate high-security NFC chips for encrypted authentication against cloning and counterfeiting.
2. Secure Authentication and Traceability Features
Each ID-Safe tag is encoded with a unique identity and linked to cloud-based systems, creating a digital twin for lifecycle visibility. Tags register irreversible state changes upon tampering—such as antenna breakage—to clearly indicate compromise and enable real-time product authenticity verification via standard NFC-enabled devices.
3. Applications Across Multiple Industries
The expanded portfolio targets pharmaceutical, healthcare, retail, food and beverage, electronics, and smart packaging sectors to combat counterfeiting, gray market diversion, and warranty fraud. Solutions are already deployed in smart packaging for luxury wine producers, demonstrating scalable, secure authentication from manufacturing through distribution to end users.
