(wiki-TODO: Add some illustrative image.)

A simple safety system of mechanical locks to disassemble microcomponents.
A bit like a keyhole on a door needing a matching physical key for opening it.
That of course is just a naive analogy though.
Actual implementations may look quite a bit different.
Maybe like a QR code grid to bress in a certain parrern and sequence??

Avoinding keyhole overkill

Only a protective outer layer

Only the outermost shell needs this protection agains disassembly. <bb> Skin protecting against viruses is a self suggesting biaoanalogy.
Be careful with those though.

If attackers are to expect that try to rip open the protective outerlayer by brute force
then this calls for defensive weaponry instead. Dire szenario.

NOT a key on each and every microcomponents of the protective outer layer

LIFO (last in first out) form closing assembly startegies
allow one to have only a few key-stones that need locks.

A note on the here assumed very high tech advancedness

Note that this is for a quite an advanced state of the technology
where malicious hardware attampting disassembly attacks
has become a serious enough problem that neeeds dealing with.
