Morphology

unbreached = breached (transparent) = un + breach + ed

Formed by prefixing 'un-' to 'breached' (breach + -ed); meaning is directly 'not having been breached'.

Etymology

The word unbreached is made from un- meaning 'not' and breach meaning 'a break' or 'a gap'. So something unbreached has 'no break' and stays whole and secure, like a fortress wall with no gaps.
