Security Seals

Countermeasures

Tamper-evident devices applied to drop boxes, card packs, dice, count room containers, and other gaming equipment to detect unauthorized access or manipulation. Security seals bear unique serial numbers and are designed to show visible evidence if removed or tampered with. Surveillance monitors the integrity of security seals throughout their lifecycle from issuance through application, inspection, and removal.

In practice

Seal integrity is a fundamental internal control; any seal found damaged, missing, or with a non-matching number must be immediately reported and investigated.
