 The
Counterfeit Issue
Counterfeiting activities can range from the
most simple of remarking commodity devices to
sophisticated and deliberate reprogramming of
complex products to sabotage military equipment.
Despite government and industry initiatives to
counter these threats, the risks remain real and
significant. Companies that ignore the counterfeit
issue, ignore the huge potential for significant
financial liability and loss of reputation, if
counterfeits penetrate through to production lines.
Allocations and long lead times are even forcing
the largest franchised distributors to dabble
in grey market sourcing to ensure their OEMs and
CEMs are free from the perils of delayed procurement,
empty shelves and stalled production lines. Therefore
no-one is immune from the threat of acquiring
counterfeit products.
