👉 The IEEE 802.1Q Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Standard, often referred to as the "IEEE Weapon," is a security protocol designed to protect network equipment from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and potential jamming or spoofing attacks. It operates by embedding a unique, encrypted identifier in the data packets transmitted over the network, allowing network devices to detect and mitigate malicious attempts to disrupt communication. This identifier ensures that only authorized devices can communicate within the network, enhancing overall security and reliability. The IEEE 802.1Q standard is particularly important in critical infrastructure and military applications where network integrity is paramount.
