NEW APPROACHES TO TAMPER AND INTRUSION DETECTION FOR SAFEGUARDS AND TRANSPORT SECURITY

Existing tamper-indicating seals have serious security vulnerabilities that are not automatically eliminated with the use of high-technology.

The use of an anti-evidence strategy and a technique we call “town crier” monitoring can potentially overcome these problems and offer better security.
