About the Packaging security scorecard
Score how well your packaging resists tampering and copying, and see which protections to add first.

- Read your score and the list of gaps, ordered by impact.
Questions and answers
What does the score measure?
How many layers of tamper evidence and authentication your pack has, weighted by how hard each is to defeat. It is a self-assessment, not a certification.
Are holograms enough?
Rarely. Holograms can be copied, and buyers do not know what the real one looks like. A code the buyer can check with a phone adds a layer that cannot be faked by printing alone.
Which standards does it follow?
It draws on ISO 22383 guidance for authentication solutions and on published tamper-evidence practice.
