Patent number: 10009995Abstract: There is provided a security module for protecting circuit components from unauthorized access. The security module comprises a base printed circuit board, base PCB, for supporting circuit components to be protected, a frame printed circuit board, frame PCB, where the frame PCB is secured on top of the base PCB and defining a protective space for circuit components supported by the base PCB, and a lid printed circuit board, lid PCB, which is secured on top of the frame PCB, thereby providing a top closure to the protective space. First and third meshes are provided in the frame PCB, and a second mesh is provided in the lid PCB. The first, second and third meshes have a number of electrically conductive tracks, and one or more tamper detection paths are formed comprising a serial connection of one track from each of the first, second and third meshes.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2013Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: CRYPTERA A/SInventors: Mathias Tannebæk Enevoldsen, Thomas Trabolt West, Erling Wesselhoff, Jan Rasmussen, Dennis Bruun Mikkelsen
