COMSEC [Communications-electronic security] and TEMPEST equipment could be tampered with or modified at any time. Even though equipment has been designed to be TEMPEST-compliant, anomalies could develop in the manufacturing process or in transit. The equipment should therefore be TEMPEST-tested before it is put into use, or as soon as possible afterward.

OBS

TEMPEST: An unclassified short name referring to investigations and studies of compromising emanations. It is synonymous with the term emission security.

CONT

L'équipement COMSEC [sécurité des télécommunications électroniques] et TEMPEST peut à tout moment être l'objet de falsification ou de modification. Même s'il a été conçu pour être à conformité TEMPEST, des anomalies pourraient survenir lors de la fabrication ou du transport de l'équipement. C'est pourquoi il faudrait soumettre l'équipement à des essais TEMPEST avant de le mettre en exploitation ou dès que possible après la mise en service.

OBS

TEMPEST: Titre abrégé, non homologué, se rapportant aux enquêtes et aux études sur les signaux de valeur. Utilisé comme synonyme de l'expression «sécurité d'émission».
