undeterrable

Impossible to dissuade

Undeterrable describes someone or something that cannot be discouraged or turned aside from a course of action.

Where deterrence fails, the undeterrable person persists: She was undeterrable in her pursuit of justice.

The word often appears in security contexts discussing threats that conventional deterrence cannot prevent.
