IAEA: Women in Information and Computer Security

The International Atomic Energy Agency has established an interest group for the Women in Nuclear Security Initiative (WINSI) with the mission to support the achievement of gender equality in nuclear security both within the IAEA’s Division of Nuclear Security and the global community of practice.
Computer based systems play an essential role in all aspects of the safe and secure operation of facilities and activities using, storing and transporting nuclear material and other radioactive material, including maintaining physical protection, and in measures for detection of and response to material out of regulatory control. All such computer based systems therefore need to be secured against criminal or intentional unauthorized acts.
