Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) Program: Partnership for Nuclear Threat Reduction (PNTR) – Nuclear Threat Reduction Efforts

These efforts include:

  • Adopting insider threat mitigation best practices at nuclear facilities;
  • Activities that strengthen nuclear security culture procedures and enhance the ability of nuclear technical organizations to keep nuclear material secure; and
