Abstract

Integral electronic security is provided for a remotely placed network device to reduce the risk of theft, vandalism, or tampering. Sensors monitor the environment surrounding the remotely placed network device. When tampering is detected, a message is sent to a monitoring station. Optionally, the network device can clear its own configuration to prevent the loss of sensitive data.
