A computer system has a connector and a circuit card that is inserted in the connector. A mechanism that is associated with the connector and the card has a state for indicating when the card is secured to the connector. A controller of the computer system is configured to monitor the state and provide an indication when the state changes. A processor of the computer system is configured to determine when software of the computer system is interacting with the connector and based on the determining and the indication, regulating interaction of the computer system with the card.
