ABSTRACT:
The exemplary embodiment of the present invention will provide computer systems and methods for protecting the security of processing for customization of computer-based value-bearing items, such as, for example, securing processing of exemplary image-customized computer-based postage label1in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, as depicted in FIG.1. The exemplary embodiment of the present invention will further provide computer systems and methods for securing computer-based value-bearing items, such as, for example, securing image-customized computer-based postage label1as depicted in FIG.1. With reference to FIG.1, the exemplary customized computer-based postage label1will bear an image2that would be provided by a corresponding user, namely by the user that orders the customized computer-based postage label. The user may provide image2in an electronic form, such as by uploading a digital representation of image2. In a variation of the exemplary embodiment, a user could alternatively provide a hardcopy image. The exemplary customized computer-based postage label1will bear a human-readable indication of the country4for which the postage is approved. The exemplary customized computer-based postage label1will also bear a human-readable indication of an amount of postage5. The exemplary customized computer-based postage label1will also bear a human-readable identifier (such as a serial number)6that will uniquely identify the particular customized computer-based postage label. The exemplary customized computer-based postage label1will also bear a machine-readable set of information7.
