Key Takeaway: Hardware that custodies keys can be compromised before it reaches the user through interdiction, substitution, or tampering. Verifying physical provenance and tamper evidence protects the root of trust.

This sub-section of the Physical Security framework will cover the physical integrity of the hardware supply chain for devices that custody keys.

Planned topics include:

  • Tamper-evident packaging and seal verification
  • Provenance and authenticity checks for hardware wallets and signing devices
  • Detecting interdiction and device substitution
  • Secure procurement and chain-of-custody practices

Contributions are welcome. See the contributing guide to help expand this section.
