ROCHESTER, NY--(Marketwired - Oct 27, 2017) - Document Security Systems, Inc. (NYSE American: DSS), ("DSS", the "Company"), a leader in anti-counterfeit, authentication, and diversion protection technologies whose products and solutions are used by governments, corporations and financial institutions to defeat fraud and to help ensure the authenticity of both digital and physical financial instruments, identification documents, sensitive publications, brand packaging and websites, announced today that CEO Jeff Ronaldi was interviewed by WFN1.com's Michael Yorba, host of "CEO Money America's Business Show".

During the interview, Mr. Ronaldi discusses how the Company's proprietary anti-counterfeiting and brand protection technology, AuthentiGuard®, is well-positioned to provide authentication and protection solutions for corporations, consumer product companies and governments.

"There is a serious problem among our traditional and e-commerce marketplaces. The quality and legitimacy of the products we buy, the food we eat, and the documents we rely on, is being compromised -- and as a result -- our safety is being put at risk," stated Ronaldi. "Our goal at DSS is to provide a proven and secure solution that allows all members of the supply chain, from the producers to the end-users, the ability to authenticate, at any time, the products that are being distributed, purchased, relied-upon and consumed," added Ronaldi.
