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.
In this issue, you will also find a new section “Questions raised in the Indian Parliament related to counterfeiting and Answers by the Members of Parliament against these.” Other than this, you will also find our regular sections such as reports from FICCI CASCADE, News Bytes, Counterfeit Seizure Report and Events in this issue.
We thank you for your continual support and look forward to receive your feedback.

Ring DoorbellIntroduction
Security is one of the primary human needs. This creates a wide market gap due to the high demand for efficient security systems. This is the rationale behind the acquisition of Ring Inc., a security company by Amazon. The firm deals in the production of security gadgets such as CCTV cameras, motion detectors, and biometric recognition systems to mention a few (Ring, 2020). Ring Doorbell is one of the first commodities to be introduced to the market by the company. The system runs on a smartphone application called Neighbor. The surveillance videos captured can be viewed by the user on the App. More so, the company keeps a record of the captured data and can be submitted to authorities as evidence if needed. This product meets the need of having a home security to solve the security problem of rampant insecurity cases (Rani, 2014). The neighborhoods are empowered as a network in partnership with the law enforcement agencies.Definitions
The Ring Doorbell is the firm’s pioneer product. It comes with a motion sensor, HD camera, a speaker and microphone that offer a two-way audio communication interface. The user interface incorporates a mobile application that helps users get real time coverages from the camera. Additionally, a door bell ring comes inform of notification. Consequently, the home owner can communicate with the visitors using the microphone and speaker. The application also operates the surveillance camera. It can trigger records automatically if rung or in case the motion sensors are activated. The product has been improved over time to make it more effective in improving security. Last year, a peephole camera was introduced in the market. The product at hand also has a service edge to it as the company offers the clients a platform for keeping a record of the footages covered. The payment plans offer the market a basket of offers to choose from. This helps capture a large market segment depending on the factor consumers’ purchasing power. A shopping offering is evident as the consumers tend to put in efforts to make a comparison between the available brands. The market segment is primarily seeking the best product for the price taken (Deshmukh, 2012). This leaves them choosing the best offer as they hold that there are variations between the differentiated security commodities in the market. The target market visits multiple physical and online retail stores and consider reviews before making the purchase decision. This paper covers how the product can be introduced in the Mexican market.
The Ring Doorbell falls under the category shopping offering. For this case, the consumers are concerned about brand names when choosing products. .

Ring DoorbellIntroduction
Security is one of the primary human needs. This creates a wide market gap due to the high demand for efficient security systems. This is the rationale behind the acquisition of Ring Inc., a security company by Amazon. The firm deals in the production of security gadgets such as CCTV cameras, motion detectors, and biometric recognition systems to mention a few (Ring, 2020). Ring Doorbell is one of the first commodities to be introduced to the market by the company. The system runs on a smartphone application called Neighbor. The surveillance videos captured can be viewed by the user on the App. More so, the company keeps a record of the captured data and can be submitted to authorities as evidence if needed. This product meets the need of having a home security to solve the security problem of rampant insecurity cases (Rani, 2014). The neighborhoods are empowered as a network in partnership with the law enforcement agencies.Definitions
The Ring Doorbell is the firm’s pioneer product. It comes with a motion sensor, HD camera, a speaker and microphone that offer a two-way audio communication interface. The user interface incorporates a mobile application that helps users get real time coverages from the camera. Additionally, a door bell ring comes inform of notification. Consequently, the home owner can communicate with the visitors using the microphone and speaker. The application also operates the surveillance camera. It can trigger records automatically if rung or in case the motion sensors are activated. The product has been improved over time to make it more effective in improving security. Last year, a peephole camera was introduced in the market. The product at hand also has a service edge to it as the company offers the clients a platform for keeping a record of the footages covered.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

Importance of Combating Gray Market Activity
1. Importance of Combating Gray Market Activity
In a study conducted recently by Components Director for a well known semiconductor supplier of both
digital and analog devices, found out that over 90 million units of the products that got sold were gray
market sales. About 80% of the product were located in Asia, 8% were present in North America, and
rest in parts of the Middle East, Europe and Africa. The products sold were not newly manufactured with
29% of the products having date codes of less than a year and about 15% carried date codes older than
11 years. Such is the propensity of gray market sales today, where old goods or faulty goods travel
through unauthorized channels with heavy discounts to the hands of consumers. Though the consumers
seem content initially but as the product quality falls within a short span of time the consumers blame
the original brand, not realizing that it is the brand violators who are at fault.
Gray market concerns have existed for a while now. Back in 2008, a study conducted by KPMG and the
Alliance for Gray Market and Counterfeit Abatement (AGMA) reported that about $58 billion of high-
tech goods passed through gray markets. This results for approximately 6% to 8% of the overall market
share. If the same is applied to the $300 billion semiconductor industry, then the gray market impact on
components supply chain can result up to $20 per year. The high-tech brands are not the only ones that
suffer from gray market sales. The consumers’ at large and other technology end-users, comprising
defense and military are also negatively affected when the goods are advertised as authentic and brand
new where in reality they can either be old, refurbished or even faulty. The repercussions of using faulty
goods can lead to dissatisfaction and even pose threat to public health and safety in case of pharma
products.
Today you find the magnitude of gray market issues present in every product category. The capacity to
track the product flow is restricted as the supply chain provides various potential points of entry and
various scopes for brand violators to carry on their fraudulent activities. Hence, it is essential to combat
gray market activity in a focused manner.
To aid this service providers specializing in enterprise risk management solutions have introduced SaaS-
based software that helps to take steps against brand violators. The software scans for pricing, discount
2. percentages and amounts of every product. The users can view all the information in user-configurable
charts on the dashboards. The software also offers a Company Risk Index that categorizes the suspects
and also displays them on the dashboard. This index enables users to identify the companies that are
the cause of lower revenues and brand violation. Furthermore, the software helps companies to
minimize the impact of gray market sales on your enterprise.
