Physical Security in the Process Industry: Theory with Applications

Physical Security in the Process Industry: Theory with Applications?deals with physical security in the field of critical infrastructures where hazardous materials are a factor, along with the state-of-the-art thinking and modeling methods for enhancing physical security.\n\nThe book offers approaches based on scientific insights, mainly addressing terrorist attacks. Moreover, the use of innovative techniques is explained, including Bayesian networks, game-theory and petri-networks. Dealing with economic parameters and constraints and calculating the costs and benefits of security measures are also included. The book will be of interest to security (and safety) scientists, security managers and the public at large.Discusses how to achieve inherent physical security using a scientific approach Explores how to take adequate add-on physical security measures Covers risk assessment tools and applications for practical use in the industry Demonstrates how to optimize security decisions using security models and approaches Considers economic aspects of security decisions Physical Security in the Process Industry: Theory with Applications is written by Gabriele Landucci; Nima Khakzad; Genserik Reniers and published by Elsevier (S&T).
