SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING TAMPERING WITH A PRODUCT

In accordance with a first aspect of the present disclosure, a system for detecting tampering with a product is provided, the system comprising: a capacitor comprised in or attached to the product; an integrated circuit configured to inject a current in said capacitor and to detect a corresponding voltage slope on said capacitor; wherein the integrated circuit is further configured to divide said voltage slope into a plurality of slope segments; wherein the integrated circuit is further configured to discard a first set of slope segments, whose slope value falls outside a predefined range of slope values; wherein the integrated circuit is further configured to use a second set of slope segments, whose slope value falls within said predefined range, for determining a capacitance on the capacitor. In accordance with a second aspect of the present disclosure, a corresponding method for detecting tampering with a product is conceived. In accordance with a third aspect of the present disclosure, a corresponding computer program is provided.
