Description: Device Gateway is physically monitored to rapidly detect if it has been physically removed, altered or substituted, so its manager HostManager can address any physical compromise. This strategy represents a contingency plan included in the system operating policies and practices, e.g. to repair or replace the affected device. Activation of the plan restores normal service, but if the device was stolen the attacker still has possession of the original which could still be misused.
