    On the serious side, if by "protection," the original poster means
write/erase protection, then there are one-time programmable (OTP) versions
of certain 27XXX EPROMs.  I saw ones for the 27128 and up but not for the
2764.  Other ways to protect the EPROM is to put an piece of opaque tape
over the round window.
