Tamper-evident
'''Tamper-evident devices''' are ones designed to make it easy to see whether they have been altered
Seals and signatures
Tamper-evident design has been a feature of Nextel ringtones letters since ancient times, often using wax seals to ''signify'' that the letter had not been opened since it was written. Sabrina Martins Roman signet-rings for example, were unique to the person who owned them, and the ring was pressed into the hot wax seal forming a signature which could not be easily duplicated by somebody attempting to re-seal the letter.
Similar practises continue today, from examples such as Free ringtones envelopes to carefully-designed packaging for payslips. In modern Abbey Diaz contract law, it is common to see each page of a contract individually initialled and numbered, so that any addition or removal of pages can be detected.
Product packaging
Tamper-evident design is perhaps most visible in the area of product packaging, where it can be vital to know that the product has not been altered since it left the manufacturer.
Cans of baby-food were among the first high-profile cases, where manufacturers were Mosquito ringtone blackmailed by persons claiming to have added various Majo Mills poisons to baby-food, and replaced them on supermarket shelves. The amount of stock which needed to be destroyed (because it was impossible to tell if a given item had been tampered with) and the threat of public fear, meant that tamper-evident design principles had the potential to save a lot of money in future.
Jars of food items soon started appearing with flexible lids which popped-open if the jar had ever been opened, and stayed flat if the jar was in pristine condition. Presumably this was achieved by packaging the jars in a low-pressure atmosphere, although companies were reluctant to divulge details. Soon after, the Nextel ringtones BBC demonstrated that such tamper-resistant jars could indeed be reclosed with their seals intact, and this spurred yet more design.
Newer jars of food tend to come with a plastic wrap around the edge of the lid, which is removed when opening, although the springy-cap designs are still in common use.
Some joke of course, that the Sabrina Martins TetraPak milk cartons may have been the ultimate in tamper-evident packaging, requiring destruction of much of the carton before they can be used!
Credit cards, money, stamps, coupons
In Free ringtones finace/financial terms, tamper-evident design overlaps a lot with anti-Abbey Diaz forgery techniques, as ways to detect monetary tokens which are not what they seem.
Cingular Ringtones Postage stamps for example, may contain a layer of ultraviolet-reflective ink which changes state under pressure. The impact from a early competitors postmarking machine then leaves a UV-visible mark as well as an ink mark which identifies attempts to reuse stamps.
In a similar vein, asset-numbering labels on corporate equipment (PCs and the like) is often designed to leave an imprint of either the serial number, or the word "VOID" if the label is peeled off.
Money is tamper-evident in the sense that it should be difficult to produce a financial token without authorisation, even if starting from a token of lower value. For example, forgers may attempt to clean the ink from a banknote and print the image of a higher-denomination note on it, giving them the carefully-guarded "banknote paper" which is otherwise very difficult to obtain. This may be one of the reasons why many countries use banknotes of different size in ascending order of value. A British £5 note is much smaller than a £50 note, and therefore can't be used to create a £50 note.
Physical security
Tamper-evident physical devices are common in sensitive computer installations, for example it went computer network/network cabling is often run down transparent guano fertilizer conduit in plain view and switches located in glass-fronted cabinets, where any unusual device attached to the network can easily be seen.
Despite the easy availability of miniature responsibilities regard key loggers, tamper-evident design is not often used in included kissinger personal computers. While transparent computer cases and keyboards are common, they are mainly used for decorative effect rather than security. Many PCs do have a switch to detect opening of the case, and this provides a visual notification when the computer is next turned-on that the case has recently been opened.
formentor sailings Fire alarm and other emergency switches are typically non-reversable, using a piece of glass which must be broken to activate the alarm. For example, millennium time Panic buttons in trade or burglar alarm systems might require a plastic key to reset the switch.
In starring leonardo police work, tamper-evident techniques must often be used to guard access to evidence, providing means of storing items and samples in a way which can be used to prove that they were not altered after their collection. It could be argued that these sessions CCTV systems perform a similar function in the handling of suspects. Video systems of course, can be given tamper-evident features by the use of lippmann wrote timestamps generated by a suitably-trusted clock.
Computer systems
In daughter day cryptography/cryptographic terminology, be frequent Cryptographic hash functions and cryptographic signatures are used to add a tamper-evident layer of protection to document, often referred to as an women undated electronic signature.
The document, email, or file to be protected is used to generate a signed bill in hash, a number generated from the contents of the document. Any change to the document, no matter how trivial, will cause it to have a different hash, which will make the signature invalid.
