[Nuclear]‘Defence-in-depth’ means a hierarchical deployment of different levels of diverse equipment and procedures to prevent the escalation of anticipated operational occurrences and to maintain the effectiveness of physical barriers placed between a radiation source or radioactive material and workers, members of the public or the air, the water and the soil, in operational states and, for some barriers, in accident conditions. [1]

IAEA

Defence in depth is implementing several layers of defence, including both administrative aspects (procedures, instructions, sanctions, access control rules, confidentiality rules) and technical aspects (multiple layers of protection together with measures for detection and delay) that adversaries would have to overcome or circumvent to achieve their objectives. [2]

Defence in depth is the combination of multiple layers of systems and measures that have to be overcome or circumvented before nuclear security is compromised.

Belgium

[Nuclear] "verdediging in de diepte": een hiërarchische inzet van verschillende niveaus van diverse apparatuur en procedures om de escalatie van verwachte operationele gebeurtenissen te voorkomen en de doeltreffendheid van de fysieke barrières, die geplaatst zijn tussen een stralingsbron of een radioactief materiaal en de werkers, het publiek en de lucht, het water en de bodem, te handhaven in gewone bedrijfsomstandigheden en, wat sommige barrières betreft, in ongevalssituaties.

Canada

Defence-in-depth: An IT security concept (also known as the Castle Approach) in which multiple layers of security are used to protect the integrity of information. These layers can include antivirus and antispyware software, firewalls, hierarchical passwords, intrusion detection, and biometric identification. [4]

Défense en profondeur: Mesure de sécurité des TI consistant à établir de multiples couches de protection pour assurer l’intégrité de l’information. Ces couches de protection sont généralement constituées de logiciels antivirus, d’anti logiciels espions, de coupe feu, de mots de passe hiérarchiques, de mesures de détection des intrusions et de données biométriques.
