The number of printers producing packaging protected by Cryptoglyph, the AlpVision machine readable covert security features for manufacturers of branded products, is increasing considerably. In response to the demand, AlpVision has developed a new stand-alone Cryptoglyph quality control system that printers can use during production runs. This system enables printers to quickly check the quality of the printed Cryptoglyph, which is typically required by good manufacturing practices applied, for example, in the pharmaceutical industries.The secrecy of the covert feature is not endangered, because two encryption keys are used: One key embedded in the new Cryptoglyph quality control system enables decoding of the public part of the covert feature used for quality control; the other key is kept secret on the Krypsos secured server and remains only known to the branded product manufacturer using a Cryptoglyph license.
