Physical Security Overview
- Physical security involves measures to protect property rights and assets from unauthorized access and threats like espionage and theft.
- It encompasses safeguards for plans, personnel, facilities, and information.
Barriers
- Barriers are physical structures that restrict or deter illegal access to installations.
- Their purposes include preventing entry, limiting movement, and protecting sensitive areas.
Restricted Areas
- Restricted areas control the access of personnel or vehicles for security reasons.
- Two types include:
- Exclusion Area: Highest security level for TOP SECRET materials.
- Limited Area: Moderate security where uncontrolled movement could compromise sensitive interests.
Perimeter Security
- Protects the inner area and immediate surroundings of an installation.
- Aimed at denying unauthorized access through fences, walls, or natural barriers.
Control of Personnel
- Personnel access to restricted areas must be controlled to prevent leakage of classified information.
- Individuals working within these areas play a critical role in safeguarding information.
Personnel Security
- Prevents unsuitable individuals from accessing classified information.
- Emphasizes the importance of security training and awareness to minimize vulnerabilities.
Key Functions of Personnel Security
- Screens applicants for suitable hires.
