Abstract

Ein Verfahren zur Auswertung von Sicherheitsabdrucken auf Poststücken umfaßt ein Zurückgewinnen von einzelnen Informationen aus der abgedruckten Markierung unter Anwendung eines symmetrischen Verschlüsselungsalgorithmus, um aus jeder Kryptozahl wieder die Ausgangszahl zu erzeugen, wobei die Ausgangszahl eine Kombinationszahl (KOZ) ist, welche die Zahlenkombination mindestens zweier Größen enthält, wobei die eine Größe durch die oberen Stellen und die andere Größe durch die unteren Stellen der Kombinationszahl (KOZ) repräsentiert wird, und Vergleich einer der Größen mit den offen auf dem Poststück abgedruckten Informationen.
