Tamper-evident seals are physical security controls that are designed to reveal any unauthorized or malicious attempts to access, modify, or damage hardware devices or components. They can be stickers, labels, tapes, or locks that are attached to the device or its casing, and that will show signs of damage or alteration if someone tries to open or tamper with them. Tamper-evident seals can help deter or detect intruders, protect evidence, and ensure compliance with security policies and regulations. References:
