The Guide discusses some concepts including threat assessment and risk management, security culture and continual improvement; the categories and characteristics of different radioactive sources; explains some basic principles of security systems and how to implement a security programme that helps protect radioactive sources from theft and sabotage.
Security of Radioactive Sources: Regulatory Practices
This WINS International Best Practice Guide provides a comprehensive review of regulatory oversight for the security of radioactive sources. This Guide addresses the performance of regulatory functions, organisation and management, human resource development, communications, coordination and cooperation. Many of the best practices identified for these topics apply to the regulatory body generally although the security aspects of these topics are highlighted as relevant. In addition, the Guide addresses several further regulatory topics that are specific to the security of radioactive sources.
