Patent 10127409 was granted and assigned to Block on November, 2018 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Disclosed is a technique for prevention of false tamper positives experienced by an electronic device by use of a custom profile. The technique includes electrically coupling a conductive trace to a tamper monitoring component for use in tamper detection on the trace. Upon occurrence of the threshold voltage on the conductive trace, a tamper event is detected. A second conductive trace is monitored over time to determine behavior of the device. If the device is likely to trigger tamper responses in response to change in environment, the threshold voltage is changed to tamper positives triggered by environment.
