increased risks 
apply as a result of certain distribution 
links
. This could be the case if business links exist with 
politically instable countries, for example. As export-oriented 
operational areas generally supply goods all over the world, 
an increased risk applies above all when particularly 
prominent links exist with such countries. 
Key protection objectives to secure facilities and installations 
which are assessed as being security-critical can be 
described as follows:
Key protection 
objectives 
The boundaries of operational areas are to be secured by 
technical and organisational measures such that 
unauthorised persons are unable to enter into these areas 
without the use of force or malicious deceit and such as to 
ensure that any forced entry will be detected within a 
reasonable time.

Outsiders should be identifiable. 
The facilities themselves are to be secured such that no 
unauthorised interference can be carried out without 
internal knowledge and/or technical resources. 
Financial resources should be deployed according to lists 
of priorities (integrated security management). 
Industrial estates 
impose special requirements with 
regard to security measures on account of the large 
number of legally and organisationally independent 
operators alone. As a rule, the vulnerability of dangerous 
facilities can only be minimised through jointly defined 
protection objectives and measures. Suitable measures 
are most expediently selected by means of a systematic 
security analysis.

3.3 Measures to achieve the 
protection aims 
Objectives 
should be defined for the protection of facilities 
and installations which are assessed as being security-
critical. For many years now, operators of facilities subject to 
the Störfallverordnung Ordinance on Major Incidents have 
been obliged to secure their operational areas and facilities 
in order to prevent unauthorised interference, for example.
In view of specific threat situations (terrorism), it is also 
necessary to hinder the entry of unauthorised persons into
