"Monitoring Nuclear Weapons Stockpiles With Radio Waves"

Information Technology (IT) security experts have developed a new method to monitor nuclear disarmament treaties. They created a mechanism that uses radio waves to remotely monitor if any changes are being made in a specific room. The researchers describe the approach's robustness and security in the journal Nature Communications. The development was a collaborative effort between the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy (MPI-SP) in Bochum, the Ruhr University Bochum, the School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University, the University of Connecticut, Harvard University, PHYSEC GmbH, and Technische Universität Berlin. The researchers approached their project from a scenario where State A wants to ensure there are no changes in State B's nuclear weapons stockpile, and to do so without permanent on-site monitoring. This article continues to discuss the new method developed by IT security experts for monitoring nuclear disarmament treaties.
