Cyber AB CMMC-CCA Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Applicable Requirement: PE.L2-3.10.3 — “Control physical access to organizational systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments.”

Why A is Correct: Security guards are a recognized preventive and detective physical control to limit access to only authorized individuals. Guards can verify credentials, monitor behavior, and provide real-time deterrence.

Why Other Options Are Insufficient:

B (Cameras): Provide monitoring and evidence, but not direct access control.

C (Firewalls): A network control, not a physical access measure.

D (Partition walls): Barriers may help physically separate areas but do not control who enters.

===========

The CMMC Assessment Process (CAP), Phase 2 – Conduct the Assessment defines the subphases for generating final recommended results. The steps are:

Determine final practice MET/NOT MET/NA results

Create, finalize, and record recommended final findings

Resolve assessment findings disputes

Extract:

“The assessment team determines the final practice status, records recommended findings, and resolves disputes with the OSC prior to finalizing recommended results.”

CMMC requires physical access to systems containing or transmitting CUI to be limited to authorized individuals and for access records to be maintained. Badge readers with unique identification provide individual accountability, access control enforcement, and auditable access logs, which are stronger than labels, cameras, or keypads.

Exact Extracts:

PE.L2-3.10.1: “Limit physical access to organizational systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals.”

PE.L2-3.10.5: “Maintain audit logs of physical access.”

CMMC Assessment Guide: “Badge systems with access control lists and logs are considered a best method for meeting physical access requirements.”

Why the other options are not correct:

A: Labels and lists do not prevent unauthorized access.

C: Cameras monitor but do not restrict access; they are detective, not preventive.

D: Keypads do not provide individual accountability (codes can be shared).
