Equipment protection

Radioactive substances are used in many fields of application, including medical technology, geophysical drilling and non-destructive testing. The use of ionising radiation entails specific requirements regarding safety, organisation and regulatory compliance. To effectively protect staff, the public and the environment, the handling and transport of radioactive materials are regulated by law and, in many cases, require authorisation.

A key component of these precautionary measures is the safeguarding of radioactive materials against theft, as well as against sabotage and other interference by third parties. DMT supports companies that handle radioactive materials in the structured development and implementation of appropriate security measures. This includes the design and preparation of security reports in accordance with DIN 25422, as well as ensuring technical compliance with the requirements of the SEWD guideline. In this way, we establish a robust foundation for safe and transparent procedures under nuclear and radiation protection legislation.

Security measures for radioactive materials

The security of radiation sources and other radioactive sources requires coordinated technical, organisational and documentation measures. DMT develops security concepts tailored to the respective risk potential, scope of application and regulatory requirements.

  • Analysis of security requirements for radioactive materials and radiation sources
  • Assessment of potential hazards and unauthorised access
  • Development of suitable technical and organisational security measures
  • Structured integration into operational processes and responsibilities

Support in proceedings relating to nuclear law and radiation protection law

Safety measures are closely linked to the regulatory requirements set out in the Atomic Energy Act, the Radiation Protection Act and the Radiation Protection Ordinance. We assist companies with the technical preparation and structuring of procedures under atomic energy and radiation protection law.

  • Technical support in nuclear regulatory procedures under the Atomic Energy Act (AtG)
  • Involvement in radiation protection procedures under the Radiation Protection Act (StrlSchG) and the Radiation Protection Ordinance (StrlSchV)
  • Integration of safety requirements into licensing processes
  • Clear and comprehensible presentation of technical and organisational content

Technical support in the context of the SEWD guidelines

The Directive on Protection against Interference and Other Third-Party Interventions (SEWD) sets out specific requirements for securing sensitive applications and facilities. DMT provides support with the technical assessment and practical implementation of these requirements.

  • Assessment of requirements under the SEWD Directive
  • Development of site- and application-specific measures
  • Support with integration into existing security concepts
  • Preparation of robust documentation for verification and coordination
