Highlights

Cryptographic product authentication with every tap

Secure NFC authentication

Every NFC label has a unique identity and generates a cryptographically secured signature with every check.

‍

Dynamic verification URL

The URL changes with every tap. This allows the system to reliably detect copied or reused verification links.

‍

Integrated replay detection

An internal scan counter documents every check. Reused URLs or an incorrect sequence of scans trigger a security alert.

‍

Tamper detection

The integrated tamper loop detects if a label has been removed, damaged, or if a product seal has been opened.

‍

Verification without an app

Customers verify the product directly using an NFC-enabled iPhone or Android smartphone. The verification page opens automatically in the browser.

‍

Custom brand integration

The verification page can be customized to match your corporate design and displays product information, batch data, and the current authentication status.

Product information

Technical details

Secure NFC solution for anti-counterfeiting

TapnProof is a complete NFC-based anti-counterfeit solution for brand manufacturers and providers of high-quality products. The solution combines secure NFC labels, an iDTRONIC NFC reader, and web-based software or a customer API.

With every tap, the NFC chip generates a dynamic URL containing a unique chip ID, scan counter, crypto signature, and tamper status. The cloud backend verifies this information in real time and then displays one of four clear results: Authentic, Counterfeit, Unknown, or Tampered.

The custom verification page can also display product images, item details, SKUs, batch numbers, and support links. This allows TapnProof to combine anti-counterfeit protection with a transparent and user-friendly customer journey.
