 About Us

Enhancing Our Nation's Security

Global Security (PADGS) enhances our nation's security by developing and applying the Laboratory's technical capabilities to an array of threats that have emerged since the end of the Cold War. These threats include weakened control over nuclear materials and expertise from the former Soviet Union (FSU), proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD), the more lethal aims of today's terrorists, and the emergence of "rogue states" threatening U.S. interests and regional stability.

Global Security Staff

Global Security draws on a staff with remarkable breadth and depth of scientific capability, professionals who have made their marks in nuclear engineering, astrophysics, statistics, computer modeling, risk assessment, detector development, and many more areas.

Mission

Global Security's mission is to provide mission-driven science reducing global threats.
