MATRIX ANALYSIS OF THE INSIDER THREAT

SAI has developed an analysis method called MAIT, an acronym for \"Matrix Analysis of the hisider Threat\" which evaluates a specific facility to detect weaknesses in the physical protection system against colluding insiders. The method converts plant parameters such as location adjacencies, safeguards locations, personnel groupings, facility conditions and adversary threats into computer matrices. From this data base the computer generates each possible path for all threats. In addition, guidance is presented on methods for developing work rules to reduce the threat from colluding insiders.
