System and method for detecting the authenticity of products by detecting a unique chaotic signature. Photos of the products are taken at the plant and stored in a database/server. The server processes the images to detect for each authentic product a unique authentic signature which is the result of a manufacturing process, a process of nature etc. To detect whether the product is genuine or not at the store, the user/buyer may take a picture of the product and send it to the server (e.g. using an app installed on a portable device or the like). Upon receipt of the photo, the server may process the receive image in search for a pre-detected and/or pre-stored chaotic signature associated with an authentic product. The server may return a response to the user indicating the result of the search. A feedback mechanism may be included to guide the user to take a picture at a specific location of the product where the chaotic signature may exist.
