ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods that can facilitate securing data associated with a memory from tampering are presented. A counter tamper component can detect tamper attacks or tamper attempts associated with a memory and/or data stored therein or associated therewith and reacts to such tamper attacks/attempts, as the counter tamper component can provide evidence of, provide a response to, and/or resist tamper attacks/attempts. The counter tamper component can be associated with a memory module that includes a memory device(s) module and is contained in an electronic device and the memory module can change a color state to provide evidence of tampering. A window component is positioned on the casing of the electronic device so that the memory module is visible to the user so the user can perceive that a tamper attack associated with the module has occurred.
