5 Nuclear Security Prevention Detection Response to theft, sabotage, unauthorized access, illegal transfer or other malicious acts involving nuclear material, other radioactive substances or their associated facilities. 11/16/2011 5

6 Nuclear Security Spectrum Responsibility for nuclear security rests entirely with each State Deter- Protect- Dissuade Secure Assess Threat Detect Assess Alarm/Alert Manage Crime Scene Analyze Evidence Neutralize Attack or Recover item Prosecute Prevention Detection Response

7 After 9/11/2001 range of Credible Threats has broadened dramatically 11/16/2011 7

8 new Global Scenario The threat scenarios are not new, but the probability of occurrence has increased 11/16/2011 8

9 Potential Nuclear Security Threats Nuclear explosive device Theft of nuclear weapon Theft of material to make a nuclear explosive device Radiological dispersal device RDD Theft of radioactive material/source Use of radioactive material out of regulatory control Sabotage of a facility or transport to cause dispersal of radioactivity 11/16/2011 9

10 External & Internal Threats External threat Terrorists Protestors Demonstrators Activists Extremists Criminals Internal threat Insider is anyone with authorized, unescorted access who could: act alone or in collusion with external threat May be passive or active May be violent or nonviolent NPPs special care of subcontractors during outages 10

11 What are the materials? Nuclear materials (uranium, plutonium and thorium in different forms) Radioactive sources Radioactively contaminated materials 11

12 Two Ways Sabotage may lead to undesired consequences Directly Adversary applies energy directly to nuclear/radioactive material to cause dispersal Adversary must gain access to where material is located Example: explosive or incendiary device used to disperse material Indirectly Adversary uses energy present in material or system to cause dispersal Requires initiating process upset and disabling mitigation systems Example: disabling primary cooling system and backup cooling capability allowing material to overheat (LOCA) 12

13 Examples of Undesired consequences Loss of Life/Severe Injury Nuclear detonation Radiation exposure Radioactive material inhalation/ingestion Environmental Damage / Relocation Radioactive contamination Political Upheaval Loss of public confidence Economic Loss Costs from damage to persons, property, infrastructure and/or environment 13

14 Attacks on nuclear facilities: some examples from open sources : Europe--10 terrorist incidents against European nuclear installations : USA--32 acts of intentional damage or suspected sabotage at NF 1978: Spain--Bomb exploded in steam generator of Lemoniz NPS 1982: France--Five rockets fired into Creys-Malville NF (Super Phenix, RR) 1982: South Africa-- Several bombings at the Koeberg NPP during construction. 1983: West Germany--Four West Germans gain forced entry to a Pershing missile site 1987: California--Bomb exploded in parking lot of Sandia National Laboratories 1992 Russia, reportedly 3 threats against NPPs 2002 and 2007 US: Al Qaeda member claims that attacks on NPP s were considered at time of 9/11 planning 2004: Australia--Alleged plot to attack Lucas Heights research reactor 2005: Lashkar-e-Toiba operatives reveal that Kaiga NPP in India was a target 2007: South Africa--Break-in at Pelindaba research reactor site. Gunmen stormed the facility's emergency response control room and shot and seriously wounded on duty manager. 14

15 The International Response Solid platform of international legal instruments, binding and non-binding Safeguards agreements, additional protocols Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material, and Amendment Nuclear Terrorism Convention and other counter terrorism conventions UNSC Resolutions, in particular, 1373 and 1540 Safety related conventions including CNS, Joint Convention & Conventions on Notification and Assistance Codes of Conduct (non-binding) All instruments support taking leading role for implementation through its programmes : Development of internationally accepted guidance Development of common principles Delivery of strategies and assistance 11/16/
