Perimeter Security for Nuclear Facilities

Nuclear facilities need comprehensive protection against sophisticated attacks, such as sabotage and theft of radioactive materials. Breach consequences impact public health and the surrounding community. Attackers often aim to release radioactive materials into the environment. Regulatory compliance is essential to mitigate risks.

At AMAROK, we believe that compliance should not be a burden. Our multi-layered security solutions protect your nuclear site’s perimeter from intrusions.

Threats to Nuclear Facility Perimeters

A nuclear facility breach is a public and national security event. Hostile groups are often organized, capable attackers who aim to smuggle radioactive materials or cause radioactive release. Security systems must be designed to protect against radiological sabotage and the theft of nuclear materials.

According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, there have been 4,626 reported illegal or unauthorized activities involving nuclear and radioactive materials since 1993. These reports include the illegal possession, attempted sale, and smuggling of nuclear and radioactive materials.

AMAROK's Comprehensive Defense Strategy

At AMAROK, we design a perimeter security strategy based on your unique operations. We consider local codes, crime incidents, and risks applicable to your site. Our defense strategy integrates multiple security layers. We combine the strengths of an electric fence, continuous surveillance, and building intrusion detection systems.

The Electric Guard Dog® Fence for Dependable Physical Deterrence

The Electric Guard Dog Fence prevents 99% of external theft after installation. It is your first line of defense against criminals aiming to steal radioactive materials. This medically safe fence generates up to 7,000 volts of pulsed shock every 1.3 seconds. Scale attempts trigger the integrated alarm and lighting system, alerting your personnel to intrusion attempts.

We will provide you with a fence up to 10 feet tall to be positioned alongside your existing perimeter fence. Enhancements such as angled and lay-down fencing prevent thieves from digging or throwing equipment over it. Our in-house compliance team ensures the fence complies with jurisdictional laws.

FORTIFEYE® for Continuous Video Surveillance and Documentation

FORTIFEYE is our multi-layered solution that integrates video surveillance and remote monitoring with The Electric Guard Dog® Fence. Breach attempts automatically trigger camera recording. Access this recording from any device connected to the internet. Footage is also stored on a server for 30 days.

With remote monitoring, security specialists monitor your site 24/7, 365 days of the year. This continuous monitoring enables a prompt response from your team and law enforcement during incidents. You will not need additional security guards to patrol your site after hours. AMAROK will notify you of suspicious activities.
