Recently, efforts have been made to develop and demonstrate methods to utilize item and personnel tracking to provide additional protection against a potential insider threat. Technological methods are being evaluated to supplement clearances, human reliability programs, and other administrative techniques. Emphasis is being placed on currently available technology to allow rapid implementation as well as to identify areas in which development is needed. The demonstrations are done in operating facilities to assess the degree of impact various approaches have on facility operations as well as to identify critical operations interfaces. Experience shows that present technology is effective and economical, but more accurate personnel tracking and better in-process material monitoring are needed.
