  • Format: Virtual

A close cousin to locks are security seals and defeating them can be just as much fun as lock picking. If you need to detect if something has been tampered with in your absence then you want to understand what makes some seals better than others. We’ll cover many types of seals along with their pros and cons. We’ll also get into ink technology, chemistry, and how this relates to counterfeit product detection among other areas. Virtual workshop includes a seal practice kit delivered ahead of time.
