Protective barrier includes a soft metal that inhibits or delays thermal or grinding attack tool penetration. The soft metal, which may be disposed between other layers and otherwise delays thermal attack by expanding or 'puffing' during attack. The soft metal can inhibit mechanical attack by rapid ablation and wear of a cutting wheel or blade. The protective barrier may additionally include an oxide or carbide layer.

Thermal barrier systems and methods for access delay

Systems, arrangements, barriers and methods for detecting illicit attempts to compromise or penetrate a physical barrier are disclosed. The systems, arrangements, barriers and methods detect illicit attempts to pry, remove or compromise a security barrier from the surface or location it protects, by insider/outsider adversaries, when any type of cabled continuity sensor (optical, electrical) is woven, embedded, or interlaced through the security barrier.
