ANDRUPOS is a leading-edge web-based automated document examination system capable of authenticating printing techniques, printer, and paper sources. It is built on research projects and studies, in which the feasibility and the relevant technologies in ICT, software, and analysis technologies have been validated and tested with pilot users. ANDRUPOS is a game changer in document fraud detection such as banknotes, ID cards, stamps, tickets, contracts, bills, financial documents, threatening letters, and others. It enables for the first time an automatic reliable detection method, giving quick and confident reports on possible fraud. Another innovative feature is the ability to link counterfeits with printers, so that different counterfeits and cases can be traced back to organized criminal groups. Identifying the source printer and the knowledge of distinctive printer and printing details of a document are important steps in fighting crime like forgery or threatening letters. In this context, the objectives of their overall innovation project are to develop technologies for a software-based, automated, and non-destructive analysis of printed documents in terms of the identification of the utilized printing technology (like offset, intaglio, inkjet, laser, solid ink, and thermal print, xerography, magnetography, liquid toner, and others), for digital printing technologies also the print engine and the printer brand and model or even serial number/specific printer.
