Counterfeit threat-for-electronics-industry-on-rise-plug-itAuthentication Solution Providers' Association (ASPA)
Counterfeiting is not a new term for electronic industry as counterfeit electrical and electronic products now occupy second place after pharmaceuticals estimated to range anywhere between US$11 billion to $20 billion worldwide
every year. However, counterfeit electronic parts have been much in the public eye in recent weeks. On March 28, 2014 one of Indian Air Force Aircraft (C-130J Super
Hercules) crashed near Gwalior city killing five crew members. There were controversial news reported
in media about the counterfeit electronics being the reason for C-130J air crash. Over the past several years the electronics industry has seen a marked increase in the
availability of counterfeit electronic components. Counterfeiters have attacked every commodity of electronics, from simple components such as capacitors,
to complex integrated circuits such as microprocessors. In expensive commercial devices, as well as high cost military components, have seen counterfeiting on the rise. This article highlights the serious risk, its impact and the possible proactive steps that can be taken to curb this menace. Is Hologram Packaging the 6th P of marketing?
Holography has evolved from security to packaging, since Glaxo used it in 1989. Again in 1994 Smithkline Beachem launches Aquafresh white toothpaste in USA in a carton covered in holographic laminate, the first time of holographic packaging has been used for branding.
The journey started by these companies is on its road to success with drastic developments in holography. The key is innovation and the approach is to stay one step ahead of counterfeiters. At this time of cut throat competition and global market conditions, companies have turned to new forms of packaging and intelligent labelling to ensure they get the attention of consumers to be successful in moving their product off the shelf and aid in helping consumers check for authenticity . Not every good packaging idea comes with a price tag. A little creative thinking is all that is needed. The article discuss the increasing use

Steps to identify authentication solutions to curb counterfeiting
Steps to identify authentication solutions to curb counterfeitingAuthentication Solution Providers' Association (ASPA)
Counterfeiting is menace for brand owners and Government authorities. In over a decade the problem has expanded rapidly and is now not limited to luxury goods and developed economies. There are any numbers of reports available on internet discussing the loss to industry and people due to counterfeiting.
Over the years, in order to prevent counterfeiting from plaguing their business, brand owners started using authentication solutions. With the availability of various authentication solutions, companies and Government authorities are facing problem in selection of a specific authentication solution as the adoption of any given solution is a complex question involving issues, amongst others, of cost, compatibility, feasibility and reliability, and there are divergent views on which technologies should be adopted and the timing for their adoption. While these solutions can sometimes add to the problem, the right selection, usage & implementation of authentication solutions helps companies and authorities to keep them one step ahead of counterfeiting. The selection of an authentication1 solutions2 that protects a document or product is a complex process and necessitates review of a number of factors regarding the role and implementation of the technology. Not all authentication solutions and security features are appropriate for all applications. It is important to understand the strengths and limitations inherent to different technologies, as well as between similar features supplied by different manufacturers.The article explain, “Steps to identify authentication solutions to curb counterfeiting”.

TAX Stamps have always been an important authentication solutions used by Government authorities to curb the illicit trade, protect consumer and to increase the excise revenue. It
was only 20 years ago; due to the globalization many countries started using tax stamps for the first time, especially in the Eastern Europe and Former Soviet Union. Today across
the globe, 81 countries are using approximately 130 billion cigarette tax stamps and 14 billion alcohol tax stamps. In India also, the revolution of first tax stamp was introduced by Tamilnadu State Excise Department in early eighties. Today, 22 States (including Union Territories) in India are using approximately 11 billion tax stamps per annum. In contrast to
globally, all these tax stamps are for alcohol, excluding cigarettes industry. The introduction of tax stamps has help State Excise Department in minimizing the hooch tragedies,
curbing the menace of duplication, as well as in increasing the excise revenue collection. This article is an overview of TAX STAMPS in INDIA.

The authentication times march 2015 volume 9 issue 26
Dear Reader,
Welcome to the 26th edition of our newsletter “The Authentication Times”.
Various Government authorities across the globe consider drug counterfeiting to be a major issue and coming with various policy measures in order to fight against this menace. The Indian Government has also mandated for all pharmaceutical firms to build track and trace capability for exports using barcode technology at three levels of packaging: primary, secondary and tertiary. Although the Government is doing work at the policy level, there is a clear need to involve all stakeholders in the efforts in fighting this menace.
The mandates to serialize all pharmaceutical products is a challenge for pharmaceutical manufacturers. Keeping in view, we decided to cover a story highlighting “Overview on Pharmaceutical Serialisation”. The issue also covers our series of article on “Authentication Technologies”. The current article will give an overview of key available anti-counterfeiting technologies to be followed by anti-tamper technology and track and trace technologies. Apart from this the issue also covers the industry updates including news, counterfeit seizure report, appointment, global patents and upcoming events.

Everyone involved in the goods supply chain - manufacturers, distributors, consumers, taxation and
government authorities- has learnt the value of security holograms and will be reassured by their presence
on products and/or the packaging, recognising the benefits they provide. However, as coding and serialisation becomes mandated in various countries for products such
as medicines and tobacco products, the ability to incorporate QR, data matrix and other types of code in to
holograms further enhances the role they can play in supply chain control. Ian Lancaster, general secretary
of the International Hologram Manufacturers Association, highlights the latest developments.Identity document challenges and solutions
Identity theft and ID counterfeiting are among the fastest growing types of crime, especially in highly industrialized
countries. According to FBI statistics, it is the fastest
growing crime in USA. The Federal Trade Commission
estimates that as many as 9 million Americans have
their identities stolen each year. The article highlight the issues related to document counterfeiting and the
importance of hologram in document protection.

Illicit tobacco trade and tobacco tax evasion are problems that costs governments and manufacturers dearly in terms of lost revenue and damage to brand reputation. Further, the high tax policies on tobacco products make them a lucrative target for counterfeiters. In this article, we
will find out how hologram, an anti-counterfeiting technology, could prove to be an important tool
in tackling this problem. Use of holograms as security and authentication devices in india
Use of holograms as security and authentication devices in indiaAuthentication Solution Providers' Association (ASPA)
Holograms have been used in India as an anti-counterfeit technology since 1990. The introduction of security holograms on India’s National Identity Voter Card provided recognition of the use of a hologram as a secure authentication device by both the authorities and by large numbers of consumers.
In authentication, the usage of holograms as excise seals is the biggest market in India. To date, around 22 of India states excise departments are using holograms to combat the illicit liquor trade and subsequently increasing the revenue of their departments. In India security holograms are gaining popularity as key element of authentication and used by almost every sector facing the menace of counterfeiting.
The industry is going strong on year to year basis, and is moving forward by combining security holograms with digital technologies. Recently, holographic features have been introduced for Financial Cards in India re-strengthening its position as one of the key visual authentication features.The Authentication Times, Issue 30
Dear Readers,
Welcome to the 30th edition of The Authentication Times.
In The Authentication Times, we continue to raise the issue of counterfeiting, which impacts the consumers and society by large. Our current edition focusses on the issue of milk adulteration in India. Managing food safety standards across a global supply chain is complex and challenging. However, steps must be taken to ensure safe and secure shipping,
and distribution of food products that end up in consumer's hands. To protect the 25 million babies born every year in India, it is essential to protect baby milk powders and other nutritional products from the scourge of counterfeiting.
According to a survey conducted by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) in 2011, 68.4 of per cent milk served throughout the country was found adulterated, which itself defines the grim situation and calls for strict rules over fake and adulterated milk.
The cover story highlights this challenging issue in detail covering aspects such as its impact, consequences and how this menace can be tackled with the help of technology – adopting authentication, and track and trace solutions.

Combating illicit tobacco trade; collaborative solutions for IndiaAuthentication Solution Providers' Association (ASPA)
Combating illicit tobacco trade is an issue that is being seriously
addressed by not only those in the tobacco industry but also governments around world and international bodies such
as World Health Organisation (WHO) and Interpol. According to an estimate by WHO, eliminating the illicit trade in tobacco would generate an annual tax of US $ 31 billions for governments. In Indian scenario, as per media sources, illegal Cigarette trade comprising international smuggled and locally manufactured tax-evaded cigarettes accounts for as much as 1/4th of the Cigarette Industry in India. According to studies by FICCI CASCADE (Committee against Smuggling and Destroying Economy), the grey market in the tobacco industry has grown significantly since 2010 and has grown from 15.7 percent in 2010 to 20.2 percent in 2012 - an increase of 28.7 percent. Government of India alone bears the losses
INR 13 billion per annum because of illicit tobacco trade. Based on the current tax rates on cigarettes, it is estimated that the
Government loses Rs. 13,000 crores per annum because of illegal cigarette trade.Taking a positive step in curbing illicit

Blockchain technology is being used in a pilot project to improve tuna traceability from catch to plate in the Pacific Islands tuna industry. The project, led by WWF Australia, Fiji, and New Zealand along with technology partners, will track tuna using RFID and QR codes recorded on the blockchain to provide transparency into the supply chain and help curb illegal fishing. The blockchain record will follow tuna at various stages - from tagging when caught to processing to final packaging.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
