Jesus SpringJesus spring is a neologism used by computer hardware hackers to describe a component installed by manufacturers to discourage or detect unauthorized disassembly of a piece of equipment. The jesus spring (or jesus clip) is a trap installed in such a way that any nave disassembly will trigger it. Common examples include a spring concealed beneath a panel, or a nut which falls into an irretrieveable position. Deactivating or resetting a jesus spring necessarily requires specialist tools or techniques unlikely to be available to an unauthorized person. A triggered jesus spring can be used as evidence to deny warranty or liability claims. The term itself comes from the oath often uttered when one is encountered.
