  You're thinking of TEMPEST.  [The mesh "Faraday Cage" is only

There used to be a name for a technology (or way of 
implementing technology) to prevent electronic eavesdropping. 
 I think it was along the lines of fitting wire mesh into the 
walls of the building so that it would defeat eavesdropping 
equipment.  And for the life of me I cannot remember what it 
was called.
Apparently it was back in the 80's/early 90's and there may 
have been one or two research projects on it.

Apologies for my stupidity, but I just can't find it.

Any ideas?  

Many thanks,

R
