Submit ASP Document
As detailed in CFATS, facilities with a Tier 4 ranking have the option of either completing
and submitting an SVA using the CSAT SVA, or uploading an Alternate Security Program
(ASP) in lieu of an SVA. If a Tier 4 facility elects to submit an ASP, rather than complete the
CSAT SVA, this section describes the process to upload the relevant files (ASP
documentation and site plans or maps) into the CSAT SVA tool.
If the facility is not Tier 4, skip the ASP section questions and go to Facility Security
Information (page 10).
Do you want to upload an alternate security program (ASP) in lieu of performing a CSAT
SVA? (If you select No, you will be directed to the process for completing and submitting a
CSAT SVA.)
[Q:1.05-3315]
Yes
No
If No, skip the ASP Documents questions and go to Facility Security Information (page 10).
ASP Documents
The alternate security program (ASP) documentation that you upload should satisfy the following
factors that are conditions for completeness.
Does the ASP cover all of the facility assets that are associated with the security issues
and chemicals of interest specified in the DHS Initial Notification letter?
[Q:1.1-3316]
Yes
No
Does the ASP use a Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS)-approved methodology?
[Q:1.1-11671]
Yes
No
Does the ASP address the asset characterization factors described in 6 CFR 27.215?
[Q:1.1-11672]
Yes
No
Asset Characterization includes the identification and characterization of potential critical
assets; identification of hazards and consequences of concern for the facility, its surroundings, its
identified critical asset(s), and its supporting infrastructure; and identification of existing layers of
protection. See 6 CFR 27.

Does the ASP address the threat assessment factors described in 6 CFR 27.215?
[Q:1.1-11673]
Yes
No
Threat assessment includes a description of possible internal threats, external threats, and
internally-assisted threats. See 6 CFR 27.
Does the ASP cover all of the applicable attack modes covered in the CSAT SVA?
[Q:1.1-3317]
Yes
No
See the CFATS CVI Document Repository for the list of attack modes covered in the CSAT
SVA.
Does the ASP address the countermeasures factors described in 6 CFR 27.215?
[Q:1.1-11674]
Yes
No
Security vulnerability analysis includes the identification of potential security vulnerabilities and
the identification of existing countermeasures and their level of effectiveness in both reducing
identified vulnerabilities and in meeting the applicable Risk-Based Performance Standards. See 6
CFR 27.
Does the ASP address the risk assessment requirements described in 6 CFR 27.215?
[Q:1.1-11675]
Yes
No
Risk assessment includes a determination of the relative degree of risk to the facility in terms of
the expected effect on each critical asset and the likelihood of the success of an attack. See 6
CFR 27.
If “Yes” selected for all of the ASP document questions, skip the next question.
ASP Does Not Address All of the Factors
The ASP does not address all of the factors in 6 CFR 27. Do you still want to upload the
ASP for consideration? (If you select “No,” you will be directed to the process for
completing and submitting a CSAT SVA.)
Continue ASP Upload Process?
[Q:1.12-12451]
Yes
No

Facility Characteristics
What is the surrounding topography of the facility?
[Q:2.92-5911]
Note: Only answer if the facility has issues related to toxic chemicals.
Urban
Rural
Select the option, Urban or Rural, that best defines the area surrounding the facility. The entry
here should match the corresponding entry in the CSAT Top-Screen. As in the Top-Screen, if a
facility is covered by EPA's Risk Management Plan, the selection of urban or rural should be
consistent with the facility's current RMP on file with EPA. If a facility is not covered by a current
RMP and the terrain surrounding the facility varies depending on the approach to the facility,
select the topography (urban or rural) that is most representative of the facility's location. If still
unsure, select Rural.
Is the facility located on a navigable waterway?
[Q:2.92-3313]
Yes
No
Facilities should answer Yes to this question if a waterway along any portion of the facility
perimeter can accommodate small to large watercraft. This includes vessels ranging from small
pleasure craft, barges, and deep draft vessels. Facilities responding No will not evaluate a
Maritime attack mode as part of the vulnerability analysis because it is not applicable for this
facility.
Security Equipment at the Facility
List the types of security equipment that help to reduce the vulnerability of COI at the
facility.
List any security equipment at the facility that helps reduce the vulnerability of COI that the DHS
Initial Notification letter noted as contributing to a high level of security risk. List only security
equipment that applies across the facility, as opposed to a specific COI or asset. See the SVA

Asset Characterization
Facility Assets
Identify one or more assets for each COI.
Each COI described in the facility's DHS initial notification letter must have one or more assets
defined (i.e., each COI must be listed as a primary COI for at least one asset). A primary COI is
the COI for which the consequences of damage to that asset will be estimated. As each asset
can have only one primary COI associated with it, an asset that is associated with more than one
COI might need to be defined multiple times, listing each COI as primary.
For example: The user has a building housing COI "x" and "y".
Asset 1 would be the building and list the primary COI as "x".
Asset 2 would be the same building but list the primary COI as "y".
Also, if a COI presents two separate security issues (e.g., release toxic and theft) separate assets
need to be defined for each security issue and the primary security issue for each asset must be
specified. The primary security issue is the security issue for which the vulnerability and
consequence associated with attacks on the asset are estimated.
The asset names should be distinct enough to identify the asset. This field can be up to 34
characters in length. A suggestion would be to include the equipment, primary COI and/or primary
security issue (e.g., Bulk Storage Tank 1103-Chem X).
Include all applicable assets have been provided. Then describe each asset and provide the
requested information. See the SVA Instructions document for information on asset selection.

Vulnerability Analysis
Answer the following scenarios based on what type of primary COI you have selected for the asset. Use the following tables to determine
what sections should be answered for a specific asset. Copy the pages needed as necessary. Only fill out the Maritime section if the
facility is located on a navigable waterway (page 39) [Q:2.92-3313]. Only fill out the Diversion section if the facility ships the Primary-COI
offsite (page 59). For example, if you have an asset with a primary toxic COI, fill out the Aircraft, Maritime (if on waterway), Vehicle,
Assault Team, and Standoff Attack Scenarios. Then for the Aircraft Attack Scenario, fill out the sections regarding Identifiability
Probability, Achievability Probability, and Availability Probability. Be sure to fill out the attack description for each attack scenario indicated
in the Attack Scenario Table.
The online application requires the user to annotate the CSAT facility imagery (or upload and annotate imagery for the facility), to indicate
each asset location, attack location, and the radius of the damage zone for each scenario.

Identifiability Probability
This refers to the probability that the adversary can identify the specific target asset during the
course of planning and executing an attack. Identifiability is a function of the size, labeling, and
nature of the asset and its similarity to others at the facility.
When estimating identifiability, a facility should consider it difficult for an adversary to distinguish
between several similar items of equipment, only some of which would be viable targets. Labeling
of equipment is also a factor in this assessment.
How likely is the adversary, in the course of planning and/or executing this attack scenario
against this asset, to identify the specific asset(s) that must be attacked or stolen to
achieve significant consequences?

Accessibility Probability
This refers to the probability that an adversary is successful in reaching the location that they
must access to successfully execute an attack, given the security measures currently
implemented at the facility (not counting facility or offsite security force response capability).
This factor should reflect the ability of existing security systems and processes (without counting
for response force actions) to prevent the adversary from reaching a location close enough to the
asset to launch the specific type of attack (i.e., close enough to place an explosive device or use
a standoff weapon).
How likely do you think that the adversary would be in successfully breaching existing

Facility Security Response Force Capability
This refers to the probability that a facility (i.e., onsite) security response force (if any) is able to
interdict an adversary force before it succeeds in executing an attack (assuming the security
measures alone were not adequate).
This vulnerability factor reflects the ability of the onsite security force to intervene in time to stop a
specific type of attack. Assume that the accessibility controls discussed above would not have
stopped the adversary, but would have offered a delay consistent with the types of physical
security measures at the facility.
How likely is the facility security response force to successfully interdict the adversary
before they are successful in executing their attack (assuming that other security
measures alone are not successful in stopping the attack)?

Offsite Security Response Force Capability
This refers to the probability that an offsite security response force (if any) is able to interdict an
adversary force before it is successful in executing an attack (assuming the onsite force failed).
The likelihood of success of an offsite response force may be low unless the facility has
coordinated with local law enforcement and integrated them into facility planning (including
exercises). Also, the staffing, training, and equipment of the response force for the type of attack
should be considered before credit is given for response force effectiveness in interdicting an
attack.
How likely is the designated offsite security response force (such as local law
enforcement personnel) to successfully interdict the adversary force before they are
successful in executing their attack (given that the onsite team failed)?

Achievability Probability
This refers to the probability that an adversary could execute a successful attack assuming the
absence of all security measures. Achievability is a function of the difficulty for the adversary to
attack the specific target asset.
Factors which may contribute to an achievability probability less than 1.0 could include:
Inaccuracy of a standoff weapon
Difficulty in attacking a point target with the specified aircraft (particularly if the asset is in
among many other pieces of equipment or units)
Difficulty in loading a large but portable package
Difficulty in effectively contaminating a COI shipment
How likely is the adversary to succeed in accomplishing this attack (giving no credit for
any facility or asset security measures)?

Target Hardness Probability
This refers to the probability that an adversary that reached a target and executed the attack did
not damage the asset sufficiently to cause the intended COI release event onsite or successfully
steal/divert the COI for use in an attack.
Do not give additional credit for considerations you have already credited in evaluation of earlier
factors (e.g., achievability, identifiability). This factor represents the inherent hardness or location
of the target that protects it from the effects of an attack that was successfully initiated. Examples
of situations where credit could be assessed include:
Tanks located in a manner (e.g., underground or mounded) where an explosive device
located at the closest point available would not necessarily cause its catastrophic failure
A vessel with multiple layers or insulation that provides spacing such that a standoff
weapon would not be effective in penetrating the vessel
What is the probability that the asset would withstand the attack (i.e., suffers less than a
catastrophic release/explosion or loss of COI to theft/diversion), assuming that the
adversary is successful at accessing the target and executing the specific type of attack?
[Q:7.22-7416, Q:8.22-9619, Q:10.22-9777, Q:11.22-9906, Q:13.22-9958]
a. The target is very hard against/resistant to this kind of attack, it is almost certain that
this type of attack will not create a catastrophic release, explosion, or loss of COI to
theft/diversion. Prob(0.8 to 1.0)
b. The target is relatively hardened against/resistant to this type of attack, it is likely that
this type of attack will not create a catastrophic release, explosion, or loss of COI to
theft/diversion. Prob(0.6 to 0.8)
c. The target is equally likely to withstand to this type of attack or to fail (resulting in a
catastrophic release, explosion, or loss of COI to theft/diversion). Prob(0.4 to 0.6)
d. The target is not very resistant to this type of attack and is unlikely to survive this type
of attack without catastrophic release, explosion, or loss of COI to theft/diversion.

Availability Probability
This factor accounts for situations where the asset (or group of assets) only contains the
applicable COI for a limited amount of time, on a schedule not readily available to the adversary.
For example, select "a" for a batch process tank that only contains the COI for one hour every 24
hours, on a schedule not available or visible to the adversary.
How likely is the specific asset attacked to contain the relevant COI, assuming that the
adversary identifies and attacks the correct target asset?

Unauthorized Customer Registration
This refers to the probability that an adversary can register himself/herself as a customer for
purchase of the COI.
This vulnerability assesses the probability of success or failure of the facility's customer validation
procedures. For example, many customer validation programs verify (1) customers' end-use for
the COI, (2) integrity of the customers' business operations, (3) the customers’ ability to pay and
method of payment, and (4) the customers' packaging and shipping requirements. Another
aspect of this vulnerability is the strength (or weakness) in the facility's cyber business system
that maintains the approved customer list such that it prevents (or allows) the adversary to
establish itself as an approved customer.
How likely is the adversary to be able to register as a new customer that is approved to
purchase theft/diversion COI?

Unauthorized Order Placement
This vulnerability factor assumes the adversary (who is not an authorized customer) is misusing
an established customer's account and can place an order for shipment to his/her chosen
location. This factor is designed to assess an individual's (adversary) ability to defeat the facility's
(or company's) procedures for identifying, validating and vetting a customer seeking to purchase
and receive delivery of a COI. For example, certain COI are prohibited from pick up and always
delivered directly to a customer by the facility. Other companies only ship to pre-determined and
approved locations. This factor aims to assess the reliability of the facility's (or company's) order
processing procedures.
How likely is the adversary to be able to place an order for this COI for an authorized
customer that would allow shipment to a location where the adversary could accept the
shipment?
[Q:12.8-7684]

Unauthorized Order Pickup.
This refers to the probability that an adversary could pick up an order being held for an authorized
customer.
This vulnerability assumes that the adversary has not been able to place an order. The ability of
the adversary to pick up an authorized customer's order could result, for example, from a facility's
failure to secure its shipping and receiving. Another possible factor in this assessment is the
trustworthiness of the facility's personnel involved in the physical packing, staging and shipping
processes.
