Safeguards professionals need a single, comprehensive tool for evaluating safeguards effectiveness aginst theft of special nuclear material by many different adversaries: insiders, outsiders, and colluding insiders and outsiders. This paper describes a new integrated vulnerability assessment tool which is currently being tested and will be ready for release later this year. The tool consists of five modules: Integration System Manager, Facility Description, Insider Evaluation, Outsider Evaluation, and Collusion Evaluation. This tool provides a standard approach for evaluating safeguards effectiveness and for preparing Master Safeguards and Security Agreements at various DOE facilities.
