The weakest systems we found completely omitted a tamper sensing mesh. Ironically, all of these systems were devices

such devices, we suspect market segmentation as a driving force behind their manufacturers' decision to omit tamper
sensing meshes. We conclude from this observation that the term ``HSM'' does not imply state-of-the-art physical tamper
sensing.
