tamper-proof
Resistant to interference
Tamper-proof describes something designed to prevent unauthorized interference or alteration.
A tamper-proof seal on medicine bottles shows evidence if broken.
Tamper-proof screws require special tools to remove.
The term often appears in security contexts: tamper-proof packaging, tamper-proof locks.
In practice, tamper-proof usually means tamper-resistant—difficult to breach rather than impossible.
