Some companies prefer high-tech assault. One approach embeds radio frequency identi- fication (RFID) chips in the product packaging to allow precise tracking: IBM, and Abbot Laboratories are pacesetters. Others, like Oracle, provide software programs that track products from factories to consumers. In Ghana, mPedigree lets consumers use their mobile phones to check if the product genuine or fake; buyers call in a special code embossed inside the pack- age to the vendor who then verifies its authenticity. Moving forward, some anticipate weaving microscopic markers into the product's packaging.
