inviolability

Cannot be breached

Inviolability is the quality of being sacred, protected, or immune from violation.

What has inviolability cannot be transgressed, broken, or profaned: the inviolability of the Constitution, the inviolability of human rights.

The term appears in legal and diplomatic contexts—diplomatic inviolability protects embassy grounds from search or seizure.

It implies not just that something hasn't been violated, but that it must not be.
