The Use of Technology to Support Nuclear Security

Nuclear Security

Technology moves at a swift pace. Innovations emerge, often creating markets we never realised existed. The reduction of production costs also opens the market to a much wider segment of the community; for instance, small discrete camera systems, previously the remit of ‘James Bond types’, with superb playback quality, are now readily available at pocket-money prices. 

In the Security World, and particularly in the Nuclear industry such innovations and availability raise concerns for those seeking to protect our assets. Security, contrary to popular conception, is actually very difficult to achieve. A Security plan needs to consider each possible vulnerability and balance the risk against the cost benefit before determining a case for agreed appropriate and proportionate mitigations to counter each threat. Sadly, adversaries have the advantage of only having to exploit a single weakness and the time of their choosing.

With the tempo of change it can be difficult to keep pace with emerging threats. In some cases, the counter-threat solutions are also impeded by a slow approval process; which in reality sees the delivery of the solution either too late (post incident) or too late (because it is already outdated upon arrival).
