U. S. Nuclear Power Plants are seeking to implement wireless communications for cost-effective operations. New technology introduced into power plants must not introduce security concerns into critical plant functions. This paper describes the potential for new security concerns with proposed nuclear power plant wireless system implementations and methods of evaluation. While two aspects of concern are introduced, only one (cyber attack vulnerability) is expanded with a description of test setup and methods. A novel method of cyber vulnerability discovery is also described. The goal of this research is to establish wireless technology as a part of a secure operations architecture that brings increased efficiency without introducing new security concerns.
