<p>The present invention relates to an authentication system comprising an authentication device operating in tandem with a set of digitized and physical identifiers provided on an object to authenticate the said object without needing to communicate with remote systems. The synergistic combination of the object provided with its unique non clonable identifier(s) and digitized correlated information in a local repository in/on the object working in tandem with the authentication device enables accessing, deciphering and converting the accessed information to a digitized signal, extracting the digitized information embedded in the local repository, analyzing the two digitized signals to provide local authentication of the said object without needing the involvement of a remote system.</p>
