description Power plants infrastructure is very important infrastructure because electricity related with all aspect in our life. To be success infrastructure Power Plant must has good security protection from the attacks. Physical security is the most important because it is the first layer in security. In Yemen there are 18 power plants and generate around 1268.05MW of electricity 835.5MW Using steam and gas and 432.55 using Diesel. Marib Power Plant the largest station in Yemen Republic and cost $159.016000, it is include 341 MW and cover 27% from electricity in Yemen while 73% come from others 18 power plants. Moreover, Marib Power Plant supplies electricity to the capital city in Yemen Sana’a and other neighboring areas. However, Marib Power Plant faces many physical attacks, the high risky attacks was local armed tribesman, bombing and sabotage. According to the reports from ministry of electricity, the attacks that happen caused a lot of problems for the government (Social, political and economic). Therefore, this study aims to design physical security measures framework for Marib Power Plant to reduce the physical security attacks. The framework included many measures (Deterrence, Detection, Delay, Response and Army role). Validation of this framework conducted by two types: firstly, by conduct the interview with expert in Marib Power Plant, secondly, by the hypotheses testing between the components of the framework. The results from this study showed that, very important to reduce the attacks on Marib Power Plant.
