Description
Without the presences of tamper resistance/evident seals the A/B switch or its connections can be tampered with and the tampering will go undetected. This can lead to the compromise of sensitive data or the compromise of an IS. When an A/B switch is attached to ISs of different classification levels, the ISSO or SA will ensure tamper resistant/evident seals are attached to the A/B switch and all IS cables at their attachment points.

Check Text ( C-2907r2_chk )
The reviewer will, for an A/B switch attached to devices or ISs which are at different classification levels, view the A/B switch to verify tamper resistant/evident seals are attached to the A/B switch and all IS cables at their attachment points. If tamper resistant/evident seals are not attached to the A/B switch and all IS cables at their attachment points, this is a finding.
