A simple series diode can provide significant reverse polarity protection. Once a reverse polarity event occurs, the diode will be driven in reverse bias. This forces the diode to limit the reverse polarity voltage to a very low value (less than the -300 mV limit on CMOS I/Os). The corresponding current will also be very low. This is because

Many self-contained critical electronic systems and subsystems, especially in automotive applications, use a 12 V or 48 V storage battery for the primary power source. To prevent extensive damage during operational life, these systems require the design-in of systems that—at a certain voltage level—provide protection from voltage polarity reversal.
The electronics could also be damage from reverse polarity if a jump-start is attempted with the jumper cables reversed. Several techniques exist that can be used to provide reverse battery protection when designing electrical systems, but all have the common purpose of preventing current flow when the battery terminals are connected in reverse.
