The other suggestion that I've seen is glitter-fingernail polish over the case screws, and take a picture of the glitter pattern, to be compared at a later date if tampering is expected. Long story short: encrypt everything, and trust noone Frank On Thu, Dec 7, 2017 at 8:24 AM, Penn, Blake C < blake.penn () security gatech edu> wrote:
We advise employees to use a burner phone and laptop (which we can provide) when travelling internationally and which we will wipe clean upon return. Any data/email/etc. that they need can be accessed through encrypted web sessions and we haven’t really seen problems about any of this being blocked.

We’ve been informed that certain VPN’s may sometimes help “ get around” the technical controls put in place by the China government but I’m also interested to hear about any ethical concerns with helping implement solutions to “get around” international laws. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
