The challenge lies in selecting the correct serialization method using the unique identifier (UID), which should be non-sequential, non-repeatable, and possess a unique identifier.
- Alphanumeric code
- 1D barcode/2D barcode such as Data Matrix or QR code
- RFID and NFC tags
- Selection of relevant security features to hinder or prevent tampering
- Changes to requirements during the implementation phase
- Choosing the right solution based on a cost-benefit analysis or return on investment calculation
