Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide systems, methods, and articles of manufacture for detecting an intrusion of a product (e.g., an ATM) via an electronic tattletale. The disclosed embodiments may provide an ATM comprising a housing comprising an interior surface and a substance adhered to the interior surface, the substance comprising a piezoelectric element. The ATM may further comprise a detection circuit coupled to the substance, which may be configured to receive a first response signal generated by the substance and generate an indication of an intrusion into the housing, based on a comparison of the received first response signal to a predefined second response signal.
