Building Global Safety Together:

Translation for Radiological & Nuclear Security

Glyph’s nuclear and radiological translation and interpretation experience was acquired through ongoing service to private sector companies and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). We have in-depth experience with translating and interpreting training materials in 50+ languages for nuclear smuggling detection and deterrence, international nuclear security, and other nuclear/radiological safety programs across the globe. Our technically precise translation and interpretation services adhere to the strict safety and regulatory terminology standards set by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and DOE. Glyph’s terminology glossaries are assiduously comprehensive to ensure accurate and IAEA-compliant translations of nuclear security, safety, and engineering content. They effectively capture the nuanced and often dual-meaning terminology that appears straightforward at first glance but carries complex, sector-specific significance.

The Glyph Solution

Beyond Generic Solutions: Tailored Translation Services for Your Industry

Consistent &
Accurate Translations

Utilizing translation memory through our CAT tool allows us to scan for repetitions from our clients’ past projects. This in turn ensures translations are consistent across all projects and reduces costs to our clients by applying reduced pricing to repetitive content.

FAQ

At Glyph Language Services, we prioritize client data security and confidentiality above all else. For sensitive sectors such as nuclear energy, we strictly adhere to confidentiality agreements, which prevent us from sharing specific project details or collaborations. However, we are happy to provide case studies that showcase our expertise and proven track record for projects that do not require the same level of confidentiality. These examples still reflect our dedication to delivering precise, efficient, and high-quality technical translation and interpretation services.

Our translators and editors have worked in the nuclear security, safety, and engineering industry for many years and are members of, or have certifications with organizations like the World Institute of Nuclear Security (WINS), Nuclear Security Professionals (CNSP), and Women in Nuclear (WiN Global). Our linguists have specialization in Nuclear Regulation and attend periodic workshops, round tables, webinars, and training courses through the WINS Academy and other organizations.

Glyph’s linguist vetting process is highly selective. On average, only 10% of qualified professional translators and editors interviewed will be onboarded to our nuclear industry linguist teams. These linguists are all trained to expertly use our secure translation CAT tool that has active real-time lookups of our IAEA referenced terminology glossaries.

For scheduled in-country training interpretation sessions, Glyph should receive reference materials and presentation decks a few weeks prior to the first session. It is also recommended to schedule  “pre” and “post” meetings to ensure training documents and presentations go beyond communicating the literal wording but consider the overall context for which it was created. Post-meetings are scheduled to review participant feedback and session evaluations. The host and interpretation teams ultimately implement feedback into documentation and presentations to further enhance its effectiveness.

At our core, we prioritize the security and integrity of your sensitive information. Our team follows exacting IT standards to ensure the highest level of protection throughout every stage of the translation process.

  • Password Protection: Access to each project is password-protected and granted on a per-file or per-project basis, limiting exposure to only those who need it.
  • Restricted Downloads: We restrict the download of project resources like translation memory and glossaries by third-party vendors.

Encrypted Communications for Secure Data Transmission
All content for translation is hosted locally on our secure Translation Software server and accessed externally via TLS-encrypted channels, ensuring data security during transmission with third-party vendors.

To our valued community,

With the inevitable measures that all businesses need to undertake to support staff and clients, I would like to provide you with an update on our operations. For over 5 years 100% of our staff have been trained and able to work remotely while still maintaining weekly office days for collaboration and team building. We have cultivated business platforms and operations that run digitally without sacrificing security, service quality or capabilities during the better part of the last decade. As of March 9th, all company operations were transferred to work-from-home with no expected change in services, capacity or staff availability.

We understand that many of our partners have experienced challenges due to having a large international presence and multilingual employees. As a result, we are extending our help by monitoring requests after business hours and on weekends for projects associated with the coronavirus. This is to ensure we provide you with the best possible support and the fastest turnaround possible.

If you do have time-sensitive requests associated with the coronavirus, please send them to newrequests@glyphservices.com and include a clear subject line or title so we can act accordingly “COVID-19 Translation”.

We encourage you to reach out if there’s anything we can do to help you and your team during this difficult time. We sincerely hope you, your family, and colleagues remain safe and healthy.

Best wishes,

Viktoriya
