(&#147;we&#148;, &#147;us&#148;, &#147;Document Security&#148;, &#147;DSS&#148;) develops licenses and sells anti-counterfeiting technology and products. We are a reporting company under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and our common stock trades on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol &#8220;DMC.&#8221;  Prior to April 22, 2004, our common stock traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol DCSS.  Until the third calendar quarter of 2002, as New Sky Communications, Inc. (trading symbol: NSCI) we developed and produced theatrical motion pictures and home video cassettes. We were originally organized in 1984 in New York State under the name Thoroughbreds U.S.A., Incorporated.  </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">We operate through three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Thomas A. Wicker Enterprises, Inc., Lester Levin Inc. and Document Security Consultants Corp, and one 51% owned subsidiary, Imperial Encryptions, Inc., all of which were acquired in the third and fourth quarters of calendar year 2002.  We entered into the anti-counterfeiting and document security businesses as a result of these acquisitions.   To date we have generated minimal revenue through several sources which are:</font></p>

<td align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">An authentication technology that indicates whether a document is genuine, as opposed to indicating whether it is an unauthorized copy. Prism requires the use of our proprietary handheld plastic verifier. When the verifier is held over a document or image, a multi-color hidden word, symbol, or image is displayed. This technology can hide warning words, codes, logos, images, and symbols into two-color and full color process printed documents. A counterfeiter cannot capture the hidden image when creating a forgery. Therefore, when a handheld plastic verifier is placed over the counterfeited document, the hidden verification image is absent, thereby alerting the user the document is a fake. This technology protects verification forms such as spare
parts, packing slips, checks, currency, licenses, travelers&#8217; checks, legal documents, tickets, labels, brand packaging, and any full color images such as art prints or color pictures of any sort. </font></td>

    <td align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">A color separation multiplier
        technology that protects against the counterfeiting of any process color
        document, package, image or label. We have developed a way of embedding
        a hidden technology that severely alters images so that printing plates
        or digital color separations for the four-color process are distorted
        and therefore unable to re-create the full color image. Our technology
        multiplies the intensity of the scans for the four primary colors, yellow,
        magenta, cyan and black which are necessary in producing a full color
        image. A normal color separation may contain the following percentages
        of color intensity; 12% yellow, 24% magenta, 19% cyan and 23% black.
        Our technology magnifies the density of these scans, thus creating a
        65% yellow, 71% cyan, 34% magenta and 81% black. When the counterfeiter
        produces his counterfeits with these settings, the output is a muddy,
        dark unusable blend of colors. Chattering wavy lines are also produced
        causing even more distortion.</font></td>

      February 2005, we consolidated our ownership of the Wicker Family based
      technologies. At that time, we completed the purchase of economic interests
      and actual ownership from approximately 40 persons and entities in technologies
      that the Wicker Family and/or licensed has sold over several decades. The
      technology related to these interests include patent rights and trade secrets
      in certain document anti-fraud and anti-counterfeiting technology. Document
      Security Systems was a partial owner or licensee of the technology prior
      to the completion of the transaction. Prior to completion of the transaction,
      there were approximately 49 interest holders (other than the Wicker Family)
with varying degrees of ownership in the technology. Some interest holders held
      net rights, others held gross rights and others actual legal ownership
      and/or expansive licensing rights to the technology. See further discussion
      below under <i>&#8220;Recent Events &#150; Consolidation of Technology
      Interests.&#8221;</i></font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">We have also entered into a definitive agreement with the Wicker Family which provides that we have obtained the legal ownership of the same technology (including patent ownership rights) previously held by the Wicker Family. The members of the Wicker Family executing the agreement were The Estate of Ralph Wicker, Mary Wicker, Thomas Wicker, David Wicker, Christine Wicker, Kenneth Wicker and Michael Caton. Thomas Wicker serves as an officer and director of Document Security, and his brother, David Wicker, is an officer of Document Security.  The agreement with the Wicker Family provides that we will retain 70% of the future economic benefit derived from the exploitation of the technology, which may include licensing
or royalty rights, patent or other infringement suits or enforcement actions, and the Wicker Family will receive 30% of such economic benefit, on a gross basis. The Wicker Family may not enter into any new assignments or licenses with respect to the technology. The Wicker Family members did not receive any of our securities in connection with this transaction.  </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">As discussed below, we did not reach
    an agreement with approximately 9 interest holders of the patents and related
    technology. Accordingly, we cannot be assured that such other persons may
    not develop the technology and exploit it in direct competition with us.
    Management believes, however, that our research and development efforts have
    resulted in trade secrets which provide us with competitive advantages in
    the development of products, and two of our executive officers, Thomas Wicker
    and David Wicker, have been intimately involved with development of the patents
    and technologies and have entered into employment and non-competition agreements
  with us.  </font></p>

    who had purchased these interests in the technology from the original inventors
    of

    Ralph C. Wicker (deceased) and members of his family the Wicker Family. The
    technology related to these interests included patent rights and trade secrets
    in certain document anti-fraud and anti-counterfeiting technology. We were

    which we believe will allow for more coordinated protection and enforcement
    of the technology rights, and allow for greater exploitation of the rights.
    We were not able to reach an agreement with 7 Interest Holders and are continuing
    negotiations with two additional Interest Holders. Any gross or net Interest
    Holder who does not or has not completed the transaction with us will continue
    to maintain the rights under their original license agreements with the Wicker

<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">The &#8220;net&#8221; Interest Holders have no legal ownership in the technology; rather they are only entitled to receive &#8220;net profits&#8221; from
    the sale and licensing of the relevant technology. Net profits is generally
    defined in the net agreements as cash funds remaining after payment of reasonable
    operating expenses from monies received from the licensing of the technology
    or patents covered by the net agreements. Each net royalty interest holders
    received 3,000 shares of our stock for every 1% net royalty interest owned
    (pro rated accordingly) in exchange for the surrender of all of their respective
    current rights, title, and interest in such net royalty interests. We issued
    a total of 168,313 shares of our common stock for the exchange of interests
    with the net Interest Holders.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Similar to the net Interest Holders, the &#8220;gross&#8221; Interest Holders have no legal ownership in the technology. These holders are instead entitled receive &#8220;gross profits&#8221; or &#8220;gross revenue&#8221; from the sale and licensing of the relevant technology. &#8220;Gross profits&#8221; or &#8220;gross revenue&#8221; is generally defined in the agreements as all income and consideration from all commercialization, sale, exchange, license, lease or other disposition of any right, title or interest of the technology, including royalties, license payments or purchase amounts. All gross royalty Interest Holders received 5,000 shares of our common stock for every 1% gross royalty interest owned (pro
rated accordingly) in exchange for the surrender of all of their respective current rights, title, and interest in such gross royalty interests.  We issued a total of 22,147 shares of our common stock for the exchange of interests with the gross Interest Holders.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">There were also several individuals and entities which held legal or beneficial ownership interests in the technology (including United States and foreign patent ownership rights) in addition to their &#8220;gross&#8221; or &#8220;net&#8221; interests, or had superior licensing rights to use the technology and future technology which might have been invented by DSS or the members of the Wicker family. These persons and entities received an aggregate of 351,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for their various rights.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">As part of the transactions, the Interest Holders agreed to a non-competition agreement. This non-competition agreement provides that the Interest Holders will not, for a period of 2 years, compete with us in the business of anti-counterfeiting technology. The Wicker Family members agreed to a five year non-competition term.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">In total, we issued an aggregate of 541,460 shares of our common stock for the rights of the Interest Holders who accepted the offer.  These shares are &#8220;restricted securities&#8221; within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. We relied upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Section 4(2) thereof in connection with the issuance of the securities. We had commenced the offer to the Interest Holders on January 26, 2005. The value of the shares of common stock was determined based upon the price of our common stock on February 15, 2005. Based upon the closing price of the shares of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange on February 15, 2005 ($7.25
per share), the total aggregate cost of the acquisition of the interests from the Interest Holders was approximately $3,925,000.  The securities issued to the Interest Holders are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act of 1933, and the applicable state securities laws, pursuant to registration or exemption therefrom.  We agreed with the Interest Holders that we would file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 to allow for the resale by them of up to 20% of the shares received by them through the buyout.  We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part in satisfaction of our obligations under our agreements with the Interest Holders.</font></p>

<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><i>This offering involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before deciding whether to invest in our common stock. </i></font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>We have a limited operating history with our business model, which limits the information available to you to evaluate our business.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Since our inception in 1984, we have
    accumulated deficits from historical operations of approximately $7,900,000
    at December 31, 2003, which has increased to approximately $9,550,000 at
    December 31, 2004. The bulk of those deficits were mainly derived from the
    previous movie production business organization that preceded our document
    security technology business. Our current business is based upon technology
    and assets that we have acquired only since July 2002. We have had minimal
    revenues generated to date from this technology. We have continued to incur
    losses since we began these new operations. Also, you have limited operating
    and financial information relating to this new business to evaluate our performance
and future prospects. Due to the change in our business model since July2002, we do not view our historical financials as being a good indication of our future. We face the risks and difficulties of a company going into a new business including the uncertainties of market acceptance, competition, cost increases and delays in achieving business objectives. There can be no assurance that we will succeed in addressing any or all of these risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.</font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>We are not the exclusive owner of certain of our technology, including patented technology and others may develop competing products or claim rights to license fees or royalties.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">As of the date of this Prospectus, we have non-exclusive ownership interests in United States patents No. 5,707,083, 5,735,547 and 5,018,767 and the European patent No. 0455750.  These patents were originally developed by the Wicker Group, which was founded by Mr.  Ralph Wicker, the father of Thomas and Dave Wicker.  Other persons own &#8220;gross&#8221; and &#8220;net&#8221; interests in these patents. As described above, we recently consummated a &#8220;buyout&#8221; of the royalty obligations owed to 40 of these persons.  However, there are 9 interests holders with whom we did not reach an agreement and who continue to hold their ownership and/or royalty interests. As a result, these persons may develop competing
products and services based upon certain of the technology that we utilize.  These persons may also claim that they are entitled to royalties or license fees from products developed by us.  The development and marketing of other products may adversely impact our ability to compete in the market place, or to successfully obtain preferential pricing on our products.  Further, claims by other owners of the patents could result in litigation against us, increase costs of litigation, or reduce our profitability.  There can be no assurance that others may not be successful in their claims.   </font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>Current litigation may affect our technology rights and plan of operation.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">On January 31, 2003, we commenced
    an action entitled <i>New Sky Communications, Inc., As Successor-In-Interest To Thomas M. Wicker, Thomas M.Wicker Enterprises, Inc. And Document Security Consultants V. Adler Technologies, Inc. N/K/A Adlertech International, Inc. And Andrew Mctaggert (United States District Court, Western District Of New York Case No.03-Cv-6044t(F)) </i>regarding certain intellectual property in which our company has an interest. We commenced this action alleging various causes of action against Adler Technologies, Inc. and Andrew McTaggert for breach of contract, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing and various business torts. Adler distributes and
supplies anti-counterfeit currency devices and McTaggert is a principal of, and the primary contact at, Adler. Adler had entered into several agreements with Thomas M. Wicker Enterprises and Document Security Consultants, both of which we acquired in 2002. These agreements, generally, authorized Adler to manufacture in Canada our &#8220;Checkmate<sup>&reg;</sup>&#8221; patented system for verifying the authenticity of currency and documents. Other agreements were entered into between the parties and Thomas Wicker regarding other technology owned by Wicker and assigned to us including &#8220;Archangel,&#8221; an anti-copy technology, and &#8220;Blockade,&#8221; which creates a wave pattern on documents when they are reproduced or scanned. It is our contention that Adler has breached these
agreements, failed to make an appropriate accounting, and may have exceeded the scope of its license. Adler has denied the material allegations of the complaint and has counterclaimed against our company, claiming it (Adler) owns or co-owns or has a license to use certain technologies of ours, including several U.S. patents. If Adler is successful it may materially affect us, our financial condition, and our ability to market certain technology.</font></p>

<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property, our competitive advantage may disappear</i></b>.</font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Our success will be determined in
    part by our ability to obtain United States and foreign patent protection
    for our technology, to enforce our existing rights and to preserve our trade
    secrets. Because of the substantial length of time and expense associated
    with developing new document security technology, we place considerable importance
    on patent and trade secret protection. Our ability to compete and the ability
    of our business to grow could suffer if these rights are not adequately protected.
    There can be no assurance that our patent applications will result in patents
    being issued or that current or additional patents will afford protection
    against competitors. We also may be required to enforce our technology rights
    in order to protect them from infringement. Enforcing technology and intellectual
    property can be quite expensive and time consuming. We may not have adequate
    funds to enforce our rights and there can be no assurance that we will be
    successful in any such effort. We also rely on trade secrets that are not
    patented. No guarantee can be given that others will not independently develop
    substantially equivalent proprietary information or techniques, or otherwise
gain access to our proprietary technology.</font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>We may face intellectual property infringement or other claims against us or our customers that could be costly to defend and result in our loss of significant rights.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Although we have received U.S. Patents
    and a European Patent with respect to certain technologies of ours, there
    can be no assurance that these patents will afford us any meaningful protection.
    We intend to rely primarily on a combination of trade secrets, technical
    measures, copyright protection and nondisclosure agreements with our employees
    to establish and protect the ideas, concepts and documentation of software
    and trade secrets developed by us. Such methods may not afford complete protection,
    and there can be no assurance that third parties will not independently develop
    such technology or obtain access to the software we have developed. Although
    we believe that our use of the technology and products we developed and other
    trade secrets used in our operations does not infringe upon the rights of
    others, our use of the technology and trade secrets we developed may infringe
    upon the patents or intellectual property rights of others. In the event
    of infringement, we could, under certain circumstances, be required to obtain
    a license or modify aspects of the technology and trade secrets we developed
    or refrain from using same. We may not have the necessary financial resources
    to defend any infringement claim made against us or be able to successfully
    terminate any infringement in a timely manner, upon acceptable terms and
    conditions or at all. Failure to do any of the foregoing could have a material
    adverse effect on us. Moreover, if the patents, technology or
trade secrets we developed or use in our business are deemed to infringe upon
    the rights of others, we could, under certain circumstances, become liable
    for damages, which could have a material adverse effect on us. As we continue
    to market our products, we could encounter patent barriers that are not known
    today. A patent search will not disclose applications that are currently
    pending in the United States Patent Office; and there may be one or more
such pending applications that would take precedence over our applications.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Furthermore, since the date of invention
    (and not the date of application) governs under U.S. patent law, future applications
    could be filed by another party, which would preempt our position. While
    we have taken and continue to take steps to become aware of related technical
    developments, there can be no assurance that we will not encounter an unfavorable
    patent situation. Other parties may assert intellectual property infringement
    claims against us or our customers, and our products may infringe the intellectual
    property rights of third parties. If we become involved in litigation, we
    could lose our proprietary rights, be subject to damages and incur substantial
    unexpected operating expenses. Intellectual property litigation is expensive
    and time-consuming, even if the claims are subsequently proven unfounded,
    and could divert management&#8217;s attention from our business. If there is a
    successful claim of infringement, we may not be able to develop non-infringing
    technology or enter into royalty or license agreements on acceptable terms,
    if at all. This could prohibit us from providing our products and services
to customers.</font></p>

<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">We are at the very early stage of
    introducing our document security technology and products to the market.
    If we are unable to operate our business as contemplated by our business
    model or if the assumptions underlying our business model prove to be unfounded,
    we could fail to achieve our revenue and net income goals within the time
    we have projected, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect
    on our business. As a result, the value of your investment could be significantly
reduced or completely lost.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"> We cannot assure you that a sufficient number of such companies will demand our products or services or other document security products. In addition, we cannot predict the rate of market&#8217;s acceptance of our document security solutions. Failure to maintain a significant customer base may have a material adverse effect on our business.</font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>The results of our research and development efforts are uncertain and there can be no assurance of the commercial success of our products.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"> We believe that we will need to continue to incur research and development expenditures to remain competitive. The products we currently are developing or may develop in the future may not be technologically successful. In addition, the length of our product development cycle may be greater than we originally expect and we may experience delays in future product development. If our resulting products are not technologically successful, they may not achieve market acceptance or compete effectively with our competitors&#8217; products.</font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>Changes in document security technology and standards could render our applications and services obsolete.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"> The market for document security products, applications, and services is fast moving and evolving. Identification and authentication technology is constantly changing as we and our competitors introduce new products, applications, and services, and retire old ones as customer requirements quickly develop and change. In addition, the standards for document security are continuing to evolve. If any segments of our market adopt technologies or standards that are inconsistent with our applications and technology, sales to those market segments could decline.</font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>The market in which we operate is highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete effectively, especially against established industry competitors with greater market presence and financial resources.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"> Our market is highly competitive and characterized by rapid technological change and product innovations. Our competitors may have advantages over us because of their longer operating histories, more established products, greater name recognition, larger customer bases, and greater financial, technical and marketing resources. As a result, they may be able to adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, and devote greater resources to the promotion and sale of their products. Competition may also force us to decrease the price of our products and services. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in developing and introducing new
technology on a timely basis, new products with enhanced features, or that these products, if introduced, will enable us to establish selling prices and gross margins at profitable levels. Although several potential competitors have expressed an interest to us in forming marketing alliances, there can be no assurance that we will undertake such efforts or if undertaken, such efforts will prove profitable.</font></p>

<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"> Our future success depends upon the continued service of our executive officers and other key sales and research personnel who possess longstanding industry relationships and technical knowledge of our products and operations. The loss of any of our key employees, in particular, Patrick White, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer; Thomas Wicker, our Vice-President of Research and Development; and David Wicker, our Vice-President of Operations, could negatively impact our ability to pursue our growth strategy and conduct operations. Although we believe that our relationship with these individuals is positive, there can be no assurance that the services
of these individuals will continue to be available to us in the future. We have extended our employment agreements with Patrick White to June 2009. We have also extended our employment agreements with Thomas Wicker and David Wicker to June 2007. There can be no assurance that these persons will continue to agree to be employed by us after such dates.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"> We intend to hire a Chief Financial Officer for our company and believe that our ability to obtain a qualified Chief Financial Officer is material to our future success. We also must continue to hire other highly qualified individuals. Our failure to attract, train and retain management and technical personnel could adversely affect our company&#8217;s ability to grow and to develop new products or product enhancements now and in the future.</font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>If we do not successfully expand our sales force, we may be unable to increase our revenues.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">We must expand the size of our marketing activities and sales force to increase revenues. We continue to evaluate various methods of expanding our marketing activities, including the use of outside marketing consultants and representatives and expanding our in-house marketing capabilities. Going forward, we anticipate an increasing percentage of our revenues to come from the licensing of our newer technologies, where profit margins are significantly higher than those provided by Safety Paper. If we are unable to hire or retain qualified sales personnel, if newly hired personnel fail to develop the necessary skills to be productive, or if they reach productivity more slowly than anticipated, our ability to increase
our revenues and grow could be compromised. The challenge of attracting, training and retaining qualified candidates may make it difficult to meet our sales growth targets. Further, we may not generate sufficient sales to offset the increased expense resulting from expanding our sales force or we may be unable to manage a larger sales force.</font></p>
</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><b><i>Future growth in our business could make it difficult to manage our resources.</i></b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"> Our anticipated business expansion could place a significant strain on our management, administrative and financial resources. Significant growth in our business may require us to implement additional operating, product development and financial controls, improve coordination among marketing, product development and finance functions, increase capital expenditures and hire additional personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully manage any substantial expansion of our business, including attracting and retaining qualified personnel. Any failure to properly manage our future growth could negatively impact our business and operating results.</font></p>

No assurance can be given that these funds will be available for us to finance our development on acceptable terms, if at all.

operational difficulties and delays due to working capital restrictions. If adequate funds are not available from operations or additional sources of financing, we may have to delay or scale back our growth plans.</font></p>

<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">You should be aware of the long-term nature of your investment.  There is a limited public trading market for the common stock.   The registration for resale of a large number of additional shares, such as the shares being sold pursuant to this Prospectus, could adversely impact the prices for our common stock.   Accordingly, you may be required to bear the economic risks of an investment in our securities for an indefinite period of time.</font></p>

We anticipate that we will retain any earnings and other cash resources for investment in our business. The payment of dividends on our common stock is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our operations, financial position, financial requirements, general business conditions, restrictions imposed by financing arrangements, if any, legal restrictions on the payment of dividends and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant.</font></p>

<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">On February 25, 2005, we issued an aggregate of 561,460 shares of our common stock to the selling shareholders and agreed to register for resale up to 20% of the common stock issued to such persons (108,290 shares).  All of the 108,290 shares of common stock will be freely saleable beginning on the date that the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is declared effective by the Commission. The 108,290 shares covered by this prospectus represent less than 1% of the total number of our shares of common stock that are issued and outstanding as of May 25, 2005. Sales of these shares in the public market, or the perception that future sales of these shares could occur, could have the effect of
lowering the market price of our common stock below current levels and make it more difficult for us and our shareholders to sell our equity securities in the future.   </font></p>

Rule 144 provides, that, in general, a person holding restricted securities for a period of one year may, every three months thereafter, sell in brokerage transactions an amount of shares which does not exceed the greater of one percent of our then
outstanding common stock or the average weekly trading volume of the common stock during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale.  Rule 144 also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of shares without any quantity limitations by a person who is not an affiliate of ours and was not an affiliate at any time during the 90 day period prior to sale and who has satisfied a two year holding period. Sales of our common stock by certain present stockholders under Rule 144 may, in the future, have a depressive effect on the market price of our securities.

</div><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif"><i>Consolidation of Technology Interests</i></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Effective February 25, 2005, we completed the purchase of various legal ownership and economic interests in certain technology (consisting of patents and trade secrets) from 40 persons and entities (referred to as the &#8220;Interest Holders&#8221;) who had purchased these interests in the technology from the original inventors of the technology, Ralph C. Wicker (deceased) and members of his family the Wicker Family. The technology related to these interests included patent rights and trade secrets in certain document anti-fraud and anti-counterfeiting technology. We were a partial owner or licensee of the technology prior to the completion of the transaction.  Prior to completion of the transaction, there were 49
interest holders (other than the Wicker Family) with varying degrees of ownership in the technology. Some Interest Holders held &#8220;net&#8221; rights, others held &#8220;gross&#8221; rights and others actual legal ownership and/or expansive licensing rights to the technology.  As described in greater detail elsewhere in this prospectus, we had sought to purchase these interests in order to centralize the ownership of the technology utilized in our business, which we believe will allow for more coordinated protection and enforcement of the technology rights, and allow for greater exploitation of the rights. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">As described in greater detail elsewhere in this prospectus, we issued shares of our common stock to different classes of Interest Holders as follows:</font></p>

These shares are &#8220;restricted securities&#8221; within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. We relied upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Section 4(2) thereof in connection with the issuance of the securities. We had commenced the offer to the Interest Holders on January 26, 2005. The value of the shares of common stock was determined based upon the price of our common stock on February 15, 2005. Based upon the closing price of the shares of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange on
February 15, 2005 ($7.25 per share), the total aggregate cost of the acquisition of the interests from the Interest Holders was approximately $3,925,000.  The securities issued to the Interest Holders are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act of 1933, and the applicable state securities laws, pursuant to registration or exemption therefrom. We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part in satisfaction of our obligations under our agreements with the Interest Holders.</font></p>

      AND OFFICERS. </b></font></p>
<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">The New York Business Corporation Law permits a corporation organized under it to indemnify its directors, officers, employees, and agents for various acts. Our articles of incorporation and Bylaws conform to the New York Business Corporation Law. Our articles of incorporation, and their amendments, are incorporated by reference as Exhibit 3.1 to this registration statement. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">In general, we may indemnify any officer, director, employee, or agent against expenses, fines, penalties, settlements, or judgments arising in connection with a legal proceeding to which this person is a party, if that person=s actions were in good faith, were believed to be in our best interest, and were not unlawful. Indemnification is mandatory with respect to a director or officer who was wholly successful in defense of a proceeding. In all other cases, indemnification of a director, officer, employee, or agent requires the board of directors independent determination, independent legal counsel&#146;s determination, or a vote of the shareholders that the person to be indemnified met the applicable standard of
conduct. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">The circumstances under which indemnification is granted in connection with an action brought on our behalf are generally the same as those mentioned above. However, with respect to actions against directors, indemnification is granted only with respect to reasonable expenses actually incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of the action. In these actions, the person to be indemnified must have acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed was in our best interest; the person must not have been adjudged liable to us; and the person must not have received an improper personal benefit. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Indemnification may also be granted
    under the terms of agreements which may be entered into in the future according
    to a vote of shareholders or directors. In addition, we are authorized to
    purchase and maintain insurance which protects our officers and directors
    against any liabilities incurred in connection with their services in these
  positions. We may obtain an insurance policy in the future. </font></p>

<div style="text-indent: 3%"><p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To file, during any period in
    which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this

    or any material change to such information in the registration statement; </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That, for the purpose of determining
    any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective
    amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
    the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
    time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">(3)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To remove from registration by
    means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered
    which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">(4)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That, for purposes of determining
    any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant&#146;s
    annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
    Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan&#146;s
    annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
    1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall
    be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
    therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
    to be the initial <i>bona fide </i>offering thereof. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">Insofar as indemnification by the registrant for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions referenced in Item 14 of this Registration Statement or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit, or proceeding) is asserted by a director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </font></p>

    pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall
    be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was
