Ek, David R.; Roach, Michelle A.

The goal of this session is to introduce five security system design concepts that will enable the development of an integrated security system and will increase the likelihood of effective security management. As a regulator, it’s important to be aware of these design concepts so that when you inspect or evaluate a facility’s security system, you can ensure that these concepts have been applied.

Security effectiveness review (SER)

Ek, David R.

As part of the on-going DOE/Russian MPC and A activities at the Institute of Physics and Power Engineering (IPPE) and in order to provide a basis for planning MPC and A enhancements, an expedient method to review the effectiveness of the MPC and A system has been adopted. These reviews involve the identification of appropriate and cost-effective enhancements of facilities at IPPE. This effort requires a process that is thorough but far less intensive than a traditional vulnerability assessment. The SER results in a quick assessment of current and needed enhancements. The process requires preparation and coordination between US and Russian analysts before, during, and after information gathering at the facilities in order that the analysis is accurate, effective, and mutually agreeable. The goal of this paper is to discuss the SER process, including the objectives, time scale, and lessons learned at IPPE.
