This publication provides guidance to States and their competent authorities on how to implement and maintain a physical protection regime for transport of nuclear material. It will also be useful to shippers or carriers in the design and implementation of their physical protection systems. The publication builds upon IAEA Nuclear Security Series No. 13, Nuclear Security Recommendations on Physical Protection of Nuclear Material and Nuclear Facilities (INFCIRC/225/Revision 5), and provides...

Esta versión revisada proporciona orientación a los Estados y a sus autoridades competentes sobre la manera de establecer o mejorar, aplicar, mantener y preservar los elementos de un régimen de seguridad física nuclear en relación con los materiales radiactivos y las instalaciones y actividades conexas, prestando especial atención a la elaboración de los requisitos reglamentarios. Esta publicación es aplicable a la seguridad física de los materiales radiactivos en uso o almacenados, así co...

La determinación y la evaluación de amenazas sienta las bases esenciales para la selección, el diseño y la aplicación de medidas de seguridad física nuclear. En el caso de los materiales nucleares y otros materiales radiactivos sometidos a control reglamentario, así como de las instalaciones y actividades conexas, los resultados de esta determinación y evaluación se expresan como una amenaza base de diseño o una declaración de amenaza representativa en la que se describen las intenciones y...

This publication presents detailed concepts and procedures for the preparation, conduct and evaluation of exercises to test relevant nuclear security systems and measures, and provides useful templates and checklists that can be used to assist the exercise development process. The technical guidance provided is targeted at States and their competent authorities to assist them in establishing and sustaining an effective infrastructure to strengthen detection of and response to material out ...

Nuclear security culture is an important component of an effective nuclear security regime, as it serves as a tool to improve the performance of the human component at nuclear facilities and organizations to counter both insider and outsider threats. Security culture connotes not only the technical proficiency of the people but also their awareness of security risks and motivation to follow established procedures, comply with regulations and take the initiative when unforeseen circumstance...

Security management for radioactive material in use, storage and associated facilities includes the establishment and implementation of policies, plans, procedures and processes for the security of radioactive material. Security management assists to ensure that the security systems are effective, reliably operated and maintained with the necessary resources. Based on extensive input from technical and legal experts, this publication sets forth security management as an essential tool to v...

This publication provides detailed guidance on developing, implementing, and integrating computer security as a key component of nuclear security. This guidance applies to computer security aspects of nuclear security and its interfaces with nuclear safety and with other elements of a State’s nuclear security regime, including the security of nuclear material and nuclear facilities, of radioactive material and associated facilities, and of nuclear and other radioactive material outside of ...
