ABSTRACT:
A computer cabinet tamper detection system includes a switch that is responsive to the chassis being opened to expose the electronic hardware and an auxiliary state element that changes state in response to the switch. A reporting program runs on the hardware to poll the state of the auxiliary state element when the computer is operational to provide notification regarding a safe or unsafe condition of the chassis. This allows the computer operator and the organization to take steps to contain any damage associated with the possible prejudicing of the computer's security.
