A tamper detection input is included within the real time clock circuitry of the APOLLO that operates in all power modes. The status of the tamper detection bit is battery backed in static RAM. Using a normally open switch, a tamper is detected when the switch contacts close.

The BIOS security setup screen provides two options for enabling a case open warning. It also provides a secure chassis mode that requires the supervisor password to be entered and the chassis intrusion detection to be disabled before the board will boot to an operating system. Both options are disabled by default; refer to the APOLLO Technical Manual for details.
