Mechanism for securing a digital lock from unauthorized use

A digital lock, comprising:

• a semi-hard magnet;
• and
• a hard magnet, wherein:
• the hard magnet is configured to move to close the digital lock in the event of malicious attack, blocking the intruder by the magnets acting as a blocking pin,
• at least one of a mechanical or electromagnetic energy of the attack is configured to move the hard magnet to seal the digital lock from the intruder, and
• the semi-hard magnet is replaced by iron and the blocking pin is resettable by dismantling the lock.

A digital lock, comprising:

• a hall sensor;
• a semi-hard magnet;
• and
• a hard magnet, wherein:
• the hard magnet is configured to move to close the digital lock in the event of malicious attack, blocking the intruder by the magnets acting as a blocking pin,
• at least one of a mechanical or electromagnetic energy of the attack is configured to move the hard magnet to seal the digital lock from the intruder, and
• the hall sensor is configured to do any of the following:
• to sense the attachment or non-attachment of the hard magnet to the semi-hard magnet, to generate an alarm signal or audit trail record, or to drive the blocking pin to locked state.
