SecureShift Solution Advantage


The SecureShift Solution Advantage

A strong overt security solution is an organizations first line of defense against counterfeiting. The advantages of a SecureShift® solution include:

  • Authentication-SecureShift® is easy to positively authenticate by eye, without the need for readers or equipment, making it simple for customers, employees, and distribution channels to authenticate products.
  • Application/Affordability-SecureShift® easily blends with product packaging, labeling, and closures seamlessly or can be easily incorporated into products, economically.
  • Aesthetics-SecureShift® offers such a unique appearance that it differentiates products from competitors.

Authentication

SecureShiftSecureShift® solutions are easy to authenticate. The simple color shift between two distinct colors makes it easy for customers, employees, and investigators to verify in the field and distinguish the counterfeits from the genuine product. Beyond the striking overt characteristics of a SecureShift® solution, the material can be forensically identified. A machine-readable feature is also available for applications that require this capability.


Application

ApplicationSecureShift® provides new and unique options for providing security where it's needed. It can be used in a variety of applications such as labels or in the packaging itself. Other security devices such as holograms are often limited to just a label or foil. SecureShift® can be applied to:

  • Labels-a dedicated security label or part of current product labeling
  • Packaging-including blister packs, boxes, or bottles
  • Closures-including foil induction seals or shrink sleeves
  • Molded plastics-formed as a part of a product or packaging
  • Thermal transfers-an in-product application for identification cards

Aesthetics-Security by Design

AestheticsIn addition to providing unmatched product security possibilities, SecureShift® also provides strong product differentiation in a competitive marketplace. Using SecureShift®, color becomes more than just a component of a product's overall design. Its color shifting appearance creates dazzling effects that can heighten the appeal and increase the value of any product.

SecureShift® protection solutions can be integrated into existing product designs and brand packaging to create new aesthetic possibilities for industrial and graphic design development. While using the SecureShift® color capability for product differentiation, new levels of overt and easily identifiable solutions also increase product security.

Affordability

AffordabilityJDSU authentication solutions are flexible and designed to meet customer needs. The flexibility of SecureShift® solutions allow brand owners to design and implement a SecureShift® solution quickly, easily, and economically, in many cases, for less than with other technologies.   SecureShift® allows the retention of existing investment in communications and identification of a brand, including existing logos and holograms, with an exponential increase in protection and security. The brand owner retains control of the product brand throughout the solution development process.

Providing a Secure Channel

For organizations with important brands at risk, building security is imperative. JDSU manufactures SecureShift®, the enabling technology that is the foundation of a brand protection program. The Company also controls the supply chain-from the core technology to final solutions such as a finished label or an in-product application on a brand.

A SecureShift® solution begins with understanding the authentication requirements. JDSU works collaboratively with customers to conduct an assessment of critical needs and then dedicates resources to the creation of a prototype solution for evaluation and testing. Once a final solution is approved, the SecureShift® brand protection solution is supplied in the form of labels, closures, etc. and is incorporated in or applied to product packaging.

Bringing Innovation and Creativity into Current and Future Solutions

Innovation Building a successful security solution that meets or exceeds specific authentication requirements requires many hours of research and development, testing, and service.
