Abstract: A device includes a general purpose input/output (GPIO) pin and a chipset that has a bootloader component, a secure driver component, and a countermeasure handler component. The bootloader component loads an intrusion detection (ID) configuration for detecting intrusion events at the device, authenticates the ID configuration, and initializes the countermeasure handler component. The secure driver component receives, from the GPIO pin, an electrical signal associated with a hardware interrupt at the device and causes a notification to be provided to a user associated with the device. The counter secure driver component also perform at least one countermeasure in response to the intrusion event.
