Why Use Y-12 TAC?

Security is a substantial component of the Y‑12 National Security Complex. Y‑12 requires the utmost protection of special nuclear materials, technologies, vital equipment and information. In short, we know first-hand the difficulties associated with selecting and deploying security technologies. We have also seen the benefits of an operational testing and evaluation program, such as that provided by the TAC, to assist in these activities.
