Description

Biosafety labs under the U.S. Bioterrorism Act are primarily regulated and must be registered with either the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture under the Select Agent Regulations. BSL-4 labs handle the world's most dangerous agents and diseases. In fact, of the four BSL designations, only BSL-4 labs can work with agents for which no cure or treatment exists. This report is a systematic security assessment of key perimeter security controls at the nation's five operational BSL-4 labs. This report focused primarily on 15 physical security controls, based on research of commonly accepted physical security principles. Includes recommendations. Illustrations.
