What are those rings?

Good day,

I've noticed on all computer monitor cords, there's the little bulge at the end that supposedly shields the signal in some way. I see some power chords have this at either end to, like so:

So, I'm wondering what is inside that thing, what does it really do, and how does it work?

It looks like MIT cables have a box on ALL of their interconnects and speaker cables too, but I think there's something else going into those. Or is there?
