A few years ago, people who suggested that NIST might issue a standard
sabotaged by the NSA would be a joke and/or the paranoid ravings of
the tin foil hat crowd...
More seriously, if your threat environment includes a tempest truck
parked outside of your house, I doubt tamper-evident evidence bags
would be a sufficient defense against a state-funded black bag job team....
