Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A TEMPEST facility is designed to protect sensitive computing systems from electronic eavesdropping by shielding them from electromagnetic radiation emissions. It is primarily concerned with preventing the leakage of data rather than data loss or integrity. It may still use comprehensive security software and other measures, but its primary focus is on mitigating the risks from unintentional or intentional electromagnetic emissions.
