Cyber AB CMMC-CCA Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

MA.L2-3.7.1 (Perform Maintenance) requires that maintenance activities and risks associated with outdated or unsupported systems be managed. Unsupported systems create a security risk if not mitigated, particularly when they process CUI.

Extract:

“Maintenance must be performed and documented to ensure continued secure operation. When systems cannot be updated or patched due to technical limitations, the OSC must implement and document risk mitigation strategies.”

Because the OSC has not demonstrated risk management for the outdated OT system, the practice is NOT MET.

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).

Under AT.L2-3.2.3 (Security Awareness Training) and AT.L2-3.2.2 (Insider Threat Training), insider threat awareness training must equip personnel to recognize and report indicators of insider threat activity. Training must focus on organizational processes for reporting suspicious behavior, not just awareness of famous cases or punitive systems. The ability to act and report appropriately is the most critical element.

Exact extracts:

“Training includes recognition of potential indicators of insider threat activity and the organizational processes for reporting suspicious activity.”

“Assessment Objectives … Determine if: insider threat training includes reporting mechanisms.”

“Case studies may be used for context, but training must include clear reporting procedures.”

Expanded explanation:

Insider threat programs under DoD guidance (e.g., NISPOM, CMMC) emphasize:

Awareness of behaviors that may indicate insider threat activity.

Reporting mechanisms — employees must know exactly how to act if they identify an issue.

Procedures for escalation and protection of CUI.

Without reporting procedures, insider threat training is incomplete.

Why other options are incorrect:

A: Bounty systems are not sanctioned practices and could create a hostile work environment.

B: Risk-ranking individuals could be discriminatory and is not a CMMC requirement.

C: Case studies may supplement training but are not sufficient by themselves.
