Is The Transit Industry Prepared For The Cyber Revolution? Policy Recommendations To Enhance Surface Transit Cyber Preparedness, Scott Belcher, Terri Belcher, Eric Greenwald, Brandon Thomas
Is The Transit Industry Prepared For The Cyber Revolution? Policy Recommendations To Enhance Surface Transit Cyber Preparedness, Scott Belcher, Terri Belcher, Eric Greenwald, Brandon Thomas
Mineta Transportation Institute Publications
The intent of this study is to assess the readiness, resourcing, and structure of public transit agencies to identify, protect from, detect, respond to, and recover from cybersecurity vulnerabilities and threats. Given the multitude of connected devices already in use by the transit industry and the vast amount of data generated (with more coming online soon), the transit industry is vulnerable to malicious cyber-attack and other cybersecurity-related threats. This study reviews the state of best cybersecurity practices in public surface transit; outlines U.S. public surface transit operators’ cybersecurity operations; assesses U.S. policy on cybersecurity in public surface transportation; and provides …
A New Pathway To Enhance The Nuclear Security Regime, Francesca Giovannini
A New Pathway To Enhance The Nuclear Security Regime, Francesca Giovannini
International Journal of Nuclear Security
The paper investigates the approach used by a new set of regional institutions, the Disaster Preparedness and Risk Management Organizations (DPRMOs), in strengthening regional governance and cooperation. It also inquires in what ways these new institutions might indirectly contribute to the establishment of a more cohesive global nuclear security framework. More specifically, through the examination of the case of Southeast Asia, the paper argues that these institutions, albeit without a specific and direct mandate to operate in the nuclear security domain, are fundamentally strengthening states’ capacity to assess risks and threats and to map vulnerabilities in timely fashion. They are …
Nuclear Security Culture And Batan’S Assessment: Batan’S Experience, Anhar R. Antariksawan
Nuclear Security Culture And Batan’S Assessment: Batan’S Experience, Anhar R. Antariksawan
International Journal of Nuclear Security
Organizations should increase safety to minimize the harmful effects of nuclear materials. Additionally, organizations should take measures to protect security culture within the organization itself. This paper covers the National Nuclear Energy Agency of Indonesia’s (BATAN’s) promotion of nuclear security culture and self- assessment projects, which is based on the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) methodology.
The Utility Of Table-Top Exercises In Teaching Nuclear Security, Christopher Hobbs, Luca Lentini, Matthew Moran
The Utility Of Table-Top Exercises In Teaching Nuclear Security, Christopher Hobbs, Luca Lentini, Matthew Moran
International Journal of Nuclear Security
In the emerging field of nuclear security, those responsible for education and training are constantly seeking to identify and engage with tools and approaches that provide for a constructive learning environment. In this context, this paper explores the nature and value of Tabletop exercises (TTX) and how they can be applied in the nuclear security context. On the one hand, the paper dissects the key components of the TTX and considers the broader pedagogical benefits of this teaching method. On the other hand, the paper draws lessons from the authors’ experience of running TTXs as part of nuclear security professional …

An Analysis Of The Monitored Electronic Alarm Activations In The Perth Metropolitan Area, Lynnette M. Bloom, James M. Cross, David Mcdougall
Research outputs pre 2011
This study as indicated in [7] was carried out under the auspices of Edith Cowan University's Institute of Security and Applied Technology and had the support of the Western Australian Police and the Perth-based Central Monitoring Agencies. The data analysed was obtained essentially from Police records, backed up by data from two of Perth's larger security companies, and consists of all the monitored alarms in the Perth Metropolitan Area which were attended by the police in the months of May and September 1989.In our consideration of the frequency of alarms by time of day and day of week, and the …
