- Abstract
This paper deals with the Russian experience in the area of the physical protection systems (PPS) development (improvement) for nuclear materials and facilities. The PPS life cycle is analyzed. Special emphasis is placed on a pre-design stage of the PPS development connected with a vulnerability analysis, a PPS effectiveness assessment, and a conceptual design. It is pointed out that a wide range of high-efficiency security equipment integrated in a PPS for nuclear sites has been developed in Russia. Special attention is given to the development of the Automated Transportation Security System (ATSS) and the State Corporation Rosatom Information System designed to ensure monitoring of the PPS operation at Rosatom sites. Issues related to the training of personnel and professional improvement in the area of physical protection both at the national and international level are emphasized. This paper has been produced based on the proceedings used by the author in his presentation on the 21st International Training Course in Albuquerque in April 2009.
