Mark, Track, Trace: Security Marking and Asset Tracking
Security marking is one of the best prevention methods to deterring theft and turns a standard piece of equipment into a unique asset
Using fully portable or bench-top marking equipment, assets can be permanently engraved with a unique, tamperproof identification (ID) mark, making an asset and its component parts traceable to their legitimate owner. Unmarked assets could be assumed to be unregistered, on any asset database, thus potentially easier for thieves to sell. However, if an asset is marked with a unique ID, and perhaps personalised with a company logo, the prospects for selling stolen equipment diminishes. Engraving an item with overt identification marks makes it more easily recognisable and helps deter theft.
