Radiation Portal Monitors (RPMs) were deployed throughout the port and border infrastructure of the United States (U.S.) beginning in 2003 to monitor for the possible presence of uncontrolled radiological and nuclear materials. Since that time, the U.S. Government (USG) has learned much about the operational challenges faced in the field. Principal among the shortcomings has been the lack of flexibility afforded the USG when all Internet Protocol (IP) rights and interfaces of the system are owned by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).
