A system (10) for generating an incrementally completed 2D security mark (20′″) includes a computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program. The computer program has computer readable code for selecting a symbology for the 2D security mark (20′″), computer readable code for selecting a scrambling technique for data to be placed into a carrier object (20, 20′, 20″, 20′″) of the 2D security mark (20′″) at each stage in the workflow, and computer readable code for selecting a manner in which a state change of the carrier object (20, 20′, 20″, 20′″) at each stage in the workflow results in a predictable change in the 2D security mark (20′″). The system the system further includes memory and a processor operatively coupled to the memory and to the computer-readable medium.
