New technologies for Australian dollar security as a means of preventing counterfeiting

The paper describes the main means of protecting new-generation Reserve Bank of Australia banknotes made using both traditional methods and modern technologies. The signs of protection are illustrated, the use of which, on the one hand, makes it difficult to counterfeit, on the other hand, allows you to quickly verify its authenticity without the use of special knowledge, which in turn is one of the ways to prevent counterfeiting in Australia. Drawing on the experience of other States can only contribute to the development of an international strategy to combat counterfeiting. The purpose of this article is to consider not only the degrees of new protection of Australian banknotes from counterfeiting, but also the features of the technologies used to create these tools. The research is based on the usage of general and private research methods, including analysis and synthesis, observation and description, as well as special forensic methods.
