Mem-Tech Security Briefing – Asset #882 (The Neural-Fence)

(Neo-Veridia Field Report)


Subject: Enforcement of the Aethelgard Perimeter

Classification: Corporate Eyes Only

1. The Tech: The Aethelgard Tower is protected by a high-frequency Neural-Fence. Unlike physical barriers, the fence utilizes a 'Biological Handshake.' As a subject approaches, the system scans the neural patterns of the individual. If those patterns do not match the Mem-Tech Employee Database, the system triggers a 'Neural Purge.'

2. The Sensation: Witnesses (those who survived the low-level exposure) describe the fence as a 'Static Between Heartbeats.' It begins as a metallic tang of ozone and copper in the mouth, followed by a high-pitched ringing that vibrates the teeth.

3. The Risk (The Static-Heads): Unauthorized entry attempts result in permanent digital catatonia. These 'Static-Heads' are often found in the subterranean transit tunnels of the Low-Sector, their eyes vacant as they remain trapped in a permanent state of neural feedback.

4. The Override: Only those with 'Cleaned' or 'Edited' patterns are permitted entry. Any discrepancy in a subject’s neural tapestry—often caused by amateur memory scrubbing—will be detected as a security threat.
