Chain of custody links Final customer Point of purchase Distribution facilities Additional carrier(s) Carrier transit point Carrier Shipping Finished goods inventory Manufacturing
What is a secure chain of custody? At each point where the custody of the item changes, capture: • Who Individual Identity card • What Product code Product symbol/tag • Which Unique identity Serialization • When At what time Timestamp • Where Location Unique location L/L/A • Why Authority Shipping instructions • How Conveyance Unique conveyance ID I keep six honest serving-men, (They taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When And How and Where and Who. ~ Rudyard Kipling
Trading partner communications • Communication of which serialized items appear in which box on which pallet within which shipment • Identification of the shipping date and time • Identification of the carrier • Identification of the seal (container) • Route plan and ETA • Cargo type

RFID tags • Benefits • Tag ID (serialized) can programmed by tag manufacturer • Counterfeiter difficulty in duplicating Tag ID • Unique Item Identifier (UII) programmed by item manufacturer • If UII and TID are both read and compared with the received manifest, added complexity occurs to introduce counterfeits • Data can be encrypted • Drawbacks • Unsure of which tag is read • Moderate cost (≈US$ 0.21) HF tag UHF tag

RFID for Authentication • Zebra card printer color ribbon application • Each uses a 13.56 MHz ring transponder • Factory programmed tag ID (TID) • Zebra authentication code related to TID is programmed and stored at the factory • TID and stored auth. code used as a pair • When put in printer, a security chip uses the TID to recompute the authentication code, verify the one stored on the chip has the same value to authenticate ribbon • Counterfeiter would have to clone RFID chip, >$1m cost
Direct Part Marking • Direct part marking is the future of product and component unique item identification (UII) • Based around use of Data Matrix an ISO standard 2D error correcting symbols • First major applications: • US DoD military UID program (all safety-related products, weapons and objects costing >$ 5000) • Aerospace components • Goal is tracking and anti-counterfeiting support
Direct Part Marking Stds • AIM DPM-1-2006 - Direct Part Mark (DPM) Quality Guideline approved 12/2006, in process to become ISO/IEC 29158 • MIL-STD-130N, Identification Marking of U.S. Military Property - Approved 12/2007 • AIAG B-4, Part Identification and Tracking Application Standard - Under revision to update Direct Part Marking and RFID
NASA Direct Part Marking Project Presentation by Fred Schramm Marked Parts Go Wherever… or not… Humans Go
NASA Direct Part Marking Project A Solution from Challenger • Permanent marking methods unfriendly to stress sensitive parts, like turbine blades and landing gear • Post Challenger “Return to Flight” activities involved studies on information management • Space Shuttle Main Engine (SSME) evaluated direct marking of bar codes and matrix codes on parts----matrix codes were recommended for SSME AIT • NASA developed Data Matrix symbol marking methods for improved configuration management • NASA developed technology to avoid adverse effects on flight program
NASA Direct Part Marking Project A Database of Piece Parts • NASA’s Primary Emphasis….Item-Level Traceability….Piece Parts • Know the Pedigree……Track the Piece……Age is measured by operating seconds • NASA Marking Requirements • Provide no detrimental affects on the performance, reliability or durability of the product • Withstand all conditions and environments to which the product will be exposed • Remain readable throughout the normal life of product • A mark is a“Controlled Defect” • An engineered mark is a“FLAWLESS IMPERFECTION”
NASA Direct Part Marking Standard 6002 and Handbook 6003 Intended Results • Configuration management as easy as checking out at the grocery store • Identification on the smallest part—some only a matrix symbol • Use of Standard 6002 not mandatory—program impact sensitivity • Supplement to MIL STD 130 (some methods not suitable for machine readable symbols) • Technical detail where possible • Recommends good practices--prohibits certain bad practices • Sends user to Engineering for piece-by-piece analysis • Handbook 6003 said to be first methods cookbook compiled • Bring management attention to operations • A “sleeper” safety issue addressed 10x10 matrix symbol on the head of a straight pin

NASA Direct Part Marking Project A Legacy System NASA has been direct part marking since it was established Item-level traceability inherent to the aerospace culture Catastrophic failures start with piece part failure The legacy system is overwhelming so just add the matrix NASA has marked parts scattered all over our solar system
Conclusions • Authentication systems require chain of custody tracking to ensure pedigree • Unique identification of the product, package, shipping unit and shipping container is required to enable chain of custody tracking • AIDC technologies such as bar codes and RFID support unique identification and enable automatic real time data capture • Direct marking of items with unique IDs is supported by emerging AIDC standards and technology
