. US civilian nuclear facilities, on the other hand, tend to be secured by the lowest bidder: desperately undermanned and underpaid, with lots of cameras and other sensors so that they can show off the shiny security control room to the shareholders. (With a huge false alarm rate, so any real alarm will probably be dismissed until a bunch of others start going off.)

True, and any facility that doesn’t have material that can be weaponized will have lower security... I mean , even if you take over what are you going to do with it? To get the materials to make a dirty bomb would take hours or days and special equipment, or people willing to die gruesomely within minutes.
In a way the material is it’s own security... and security would be focused on preventing damage and sabotage not really around preventing radiation absorption by an intruder.
