A set of programming present in virtually all Colonial Pact Trade Alliance guidance systems and computer systems tasked with interpreting sensor data, effectively an electronic counter-counter measure intended to reduce or eliminate the effectiveness of various types of ECM. To start with all sensor interpretation involves cross referencing similar types of data, such as overlaying visual and infrared data. The primary goal of this is to differentiate between decoys and actual targets, or in the case of stealth craft look for abnormalities that can't be explained. Processor intensive, it can task the platform's computer system and these protocols are not always effective especially on missile and torpedo systems. However they still dramatically increase the ability of an employing platform to see through countermeasures to the real target.
