Security Technology Information Archive (STIA)
HSS has established an information resource at Oak
Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) that archives data
about security technologies, and makes that data available
to users at DOE and NNSA sites. The archive is currently
staffed by an individual that serves several functions
including data acquisition, database management, information
advisor, and librarian. Although HSS plans to eventually
establish an ability to electronically search and download
reports and data, the feedback received from prospective
field users suggested that it is important to first
have a person capable of helping them find information
via phone. The STIA provides a central reference library
of critical information about security technologies
including performance evaluation results such as probability
of detection, delay values, and probability of hit and
kill data that can be used to prepare vulnerability
analyses and simulations. It will also include vendor
specifications, safety-related data and lessons learned
by sites that may have already installed the technology.
The STIA collects, updates as necessary, and distributes
this information to identified users.

The STIA serves a host of different users within DOE
and NNSA, and potentially other agencies that have an
appropriate need-to-know. Specific audiences targeted
are site security operations staff, protective forces,
vulnerability analysts, and others.

The STIA maintains a physical library of reports with
hardcopies, but also strives to establish electronic
files where possible so that they can be disseminated
quickly upon request. In the case of classified information,
however, all information will initially be handled in
hardcopy form and mailed to requestors. HSS expects
much of the information that the STIA will house to
originate within DOE, but we also plan to establish
formal links and obtain routine distributions of reports
from other agencies that deal with security technology,
and in particular the Department of Defense. Where it
makes sense, information will be distributed among partners
with ORNL. For example, many sites and other laboratories
already have archives of reports and data on security
technologies. Rather than duplicate existing archives
the STIA will attempt to establish a searchable listing
of abstracts of reports that can be dispatched directly
to requestors when needed.
