Abstract
Disclosed are methods, systems and computer program products where an item may or may not be determined as counterfeit based on result(s) of a comparison between test data for the item, and test data for items that are associated with manufacturing data in the cluster that is most likely to include manufacturing data that is associated with attribute data obtained for the item. In some embodiments, such methods, systems and computer program products may allow automated, universal non-destructive, and/or non-invasive detection of counterfeit electronic items. In some embodiments, counterfeit detection may be integrated into existing supply chains, including high volume manufacturing supply chains, and may be performed for a large variety of items without a need for a major adjustment to manufacturing. However, the counterfeit detection in some embodiments may not necessarily be integrated into manufacturing and may occur at any time, even when an item is in use.
