oDynamo is a PCI PTS 5.x, SRED Certified hybrid insertion reader. oDynamo’s enclosure and its associated electronics have been designed to form a Tamper Resistant Security Module (TRSM). The covers are securely attached and incorporate sensing circuits to detect if any attempt is made to open the device. Internal spaces within the device have been minimized to reduce the possibility
of unauthorized modifications. Any attempt to penetrate or modify oDynamo electronically will cause the device to permanently erase its stored encryption keys, after which oDynamo will cease to function. Inspect the following areas of the device for tampering.
Carefully inspect the form factor. Make certain there are no additional electronics, wires or forms added to the device. Check the overall form factor for signs of attempted entry.
Look for any hidden and additional wires in crevasses, seams, and exterior surface. Check there are no additional wires on the device.
The device’s installation face includes a gasket. Do not remove the gasket.
The front face metal bezel is one die-cast piece. Inspect for any modification or hidden wires protruding from the card slot or drain holes.
The device includes a label well around the General Status LED. MagTek is default label.
Apply power to the device, LED should be solid GREEN. Apply power to the device for 60 seconds. If the LED shows any red, a tamper event has occurred.
The product label is located on the back of the device. Check PN, SN and HW number. Serial Number matches serial number on boot-up.
Look for any hidden and additional wires in crevasses, seams and exterior surface of the device.
Check tampering of 6 screws. DO NOT REMOVE THE SCREWS.
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION Inspect for objects or wires in the vent holes.
The card insertion slot is a smooth, unobstructed path. Insert an embossed card into the device to check for any signs of obstruction inside. Other than the magnetic head that reads magnetic stripes and contact points that read chips there are no electronics, objects, or wires on the path.
Unauthorized removal of switches will disable the device. Exercise the two (2) dismount switches by pressing them. They should return to the original position upon release of finger pressure.
Inspect individual connection ports
RS-232 and Power Port
USB Host Port
USB Device Port
Ethernet Port
Check tampering of 4 screws. DO NOT REMOVE THE SCREWS.

Inspect where the seams come together to ensure there are no extraneous wires.
Inspect crevasses to ensure there are no extraneous wires.
Inspect the 4x drain holes below the bezel nose (plus the 1x drain hole to the left side of the bezel nose). There are no electronics, objects or wires coming from the drain holes.
Inspect where the seams come together to make ensure are no extraneous wires.
Inspect crevasses to make certain there are no extraneous wires.
Carefully inspect the form factor. Ensure there are no additional electronics, wires, or forms added to the device.
Periodically inspect the following items:
Metal Bezel
Card Slot
When servicing behind cabinet/door (terminal) inspect device for external wires, or foreign objects not included in the solution design. For proper installation, refer to your solution design documentation.
Observe front face of the metal bezel and inspect for any modification or hidden wires.
Look for any hidden and additional wires. No additional wires should be coming out of the holes.
Check all views of the device and compare to photos.
It is helpful to do the following for your device inspection audit.
Have a list of the device sand details listed on the asset tag.
Take photos of the front, back, and sides of each device.
Check device Part numbers, serial numbers and IDs and check physical connections. Report any suspected signs of tampering immediately.
