Popis:	This paper presents how security effectiveness can be measured by considering the cost involved in providing security for a radiological center and measures to improve security through risk analysis. The expansion of nuclear technologies and the possible use of nuclear and radioactive materials continues to grow. This increase comes with potential risk of radioactive materials being used for the wrong reasons; thus it is important to provide physical protection of nuclear related facilities to counter these threats and use atomic energy for peaceful purposes. The effectiveness of the security systems put in place at the facility can be assessed by making analysis of the risks associated to the facility.
