Verayo, Bartronics To Deliver 'Unclonable' RFID Tags In India

Verayo, a security and authentication solutions provider, has partnered with Bartronics India (Bartronics), a bar code and RFID technology company, to provide cost-effective RFID offerings to the Indian market. The strategic partnership not only strengthens the long-term co-operation between the two companies, but also addresses the need for differentiated solutions targeting anti-counterfeiting and low-cost authentication.

With the partnership, Verayo brings its unclonable RFID chip to India. Verayo’s RFID chip is based on a silicon biometric technology called Physical Unclonable Functions (PUF). PUF technology is a type of electronic DNA or fingerprinting technology for silicon chips that renders the chips unclonable. Working together, Bartronics’ RFID tags will incorporate Verayo’s unclonable RFID chip, and can be used in applications such as consumer product anti-counterfeiting, mass transit tickets, secure IDs and access cards.

“When we were first introduced to Verayo’s PUF technology, we were very impressed by its unclonable capability and low-cost authentication features,” said Sreenivas Parasa, chief scientific officer at Bartronics. “We decided to partner with Verayo based on its unique technology that will enable us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors, and provide secure RFID offerings based on the needs of our customers.”
