About
Datatag was developed with two specific aims;
- act as a powerful theft deterrent and
-
aid Police in the identification and subsequent recovery of stolen property.
Datatag’s security systems achieve this by implementing ‘state-of-the-art’ forensic identification technologies including both covert and overt markings. In combination these are virtually impossible to remove or mask, thereby significantly deterring theft and allowing easy and rapid identification of stolen assets by police and swift return to the rightful keeper.
Datatag Technologies
Datatag technologies are constantly evolving and are some of the most sophisticated available today, including the latest ultra high frequency RFID transponders and forensic DNA solutions.
Datatag is recognised in many markets and is the the chosen security marking and technology partner behind the biggest official industry schemes including; CESAR (for plant and agricultural machinery, COMPASS (for outboard motors and boats) and PWC (for personal watercraft). With these schemes Datatag technologies are fitted as standard by more brands than any other company in the UK.
Datatag technologies are endorsed by a host of leading insurers, professional organisations, governing bodies and local authorities. They provide unparalleled levels of identification security and are combined with Datatag’s secure database, accessible to the Police 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via both a contact centre and now a web based application called RAPID.
The Ultimate Theft Deterrent
Many of the identification technologies employed by a Datatag system can be accessed using off the shelf ‘readers’ and in many cases simply the naked human eye. This makes Datatag systems, in almost all cases where deployed, quick and easily accessible to Police without the need for expensive equipment or costly laboratory tests.
One of Datatag’s most powerful weapons against theft are its proprietary RFID transponders and associated scanners. These hi-tech unique Datatag RFID transponders are individually programmed and encrypted so that they are only able to be read by Datatag scanners and play a key role in property identification. Datatag supports all UK Police Forces with scanners in order to equip them with the ultimate tool to combat thieves.
Datatag’s ultimate ID technology must be its totally unique chemical DNA solutions which feature in almost all of their systems from the smallest handheld power tools to enormous agricultural equipment.
Datatagged property can ALWAYS be identified by the Police, even if all other identification numbers have been removed making it one of the most powerful crime reducing technologies you can employ to beat the thieves.
