Abstract: A security enclosure and method of forming the security enclosure. The security enclosure includes an electronic assembly, an extension, and a tamper respondent wrap. The extension has a first end inserted in the assembly and a second end having at least one bonding pad thereon. The tamper respondent wrap at least partially surrounds the assembly. The wrap has a bonding pad. The bonding pad of the extension is secured to the bonding pad of the wrap. The tamper respondent wrap includes a plurality of layers. A plurality of electrically conductive lines or a plurality of electrically conductive ink traces exist within each layer of the wrap.

Abstract: The present invention provides a security enclosure having an electronic assembly, such as a cryptographic processor card enclosed within an enclosure, surrounded by a tamper respondent wrap. The enclosure further includes a flexible extension cable which electrically connects the wrap and the assembly. The extension cable includes a plurality of interconnections at a first end to form an electrical connection with the assembly, and a plurality of bonding pads at a second end to form an electrical connection with a plurality of corresponding bonding pads of the wrap.
