During fermentation CO2 is generated and since it is heavier than oxygen it will graduallly press out excess air and serve as an anaerobic barrier that protects against the growth of harmful yeasts, molds and undesireable bacteria. Lactic acid bacteriea are naturally occuring everywhere - even on fruits and vegetables - and are significant by their ability to thrive in anaerobic environments. In the nature of their presence they help protect against contamination by coverting sugars in to lactic acid and in doing so, they establish an overall acidity that prevents undesireable bacteria to thrive with in the brine.
