anti-tamper
Prevents unauthorized alteration
Anti-tamper describes measures designed to prevent, detect, or respond to unauthorized access or modification.
The term appears most often in security contexts: anti-tamper packaging shows visible evidence if opened, while anti-tamper screws require special tools.
In military and technology settings, anti-tamper systems protect sensitive equipment or software from reverse engineering or sabotage.
