Topics of the 38-page white paper include a comprehensive overview of counterfeit fraud as well as best-practice fraud prevention techniques designed to thwart modern counterfeiters.  According to the document, new technology enables perpetrators at all levels of sophistication to attack a wide range of retail establishments, including supermarkets, mass merchandisers, convenience stores and other kinds of businesses.  Ahead of the curve, advanced yet simple forms of new technology can prevent such fraud, and the white paper provides detailed backgrounds on the options available.
