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MA.L2-3.7.1 (Perform Maintenance) requires that maintenance activities and risks associated with outdated or unsupported systems be managed.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Because the OSC has not demonstrated risk management for the outdated OT system, the practice is NOT MET.

When CUI and FCI reside on the same network, the entire environment is considered a CUI environment. The presence of CUI drives the assessment requirement to CMMC Level 2, regardless of whether FCI also exists. Assets cannot be assessed separately under Level 1 vs. Level 2 within the same network boundary.

Exact extracts:

“If CUI is processed, stored, or transmitted within an environment, the environment is in scope for CMMC Level 2.”

“The presence of CUI dictates the assessment level, regardless of whether FCI is also present.”

“Segmentation may reduce scope, but if assets remain within the same environment, all assets fall under Level 2.”

Why other options are incorrect:

B: Level 1 cannot be applied to Server A while Server B undergoes Level 2 in the same network.

C: Presence of CUI means Level 2 is required, not Level 1.

D: Segmentation can reduce scope but is not required before assessment; it is an OSC design choice.

CMMC Level 2 requires CSPs that process, store, or transmit CUI to meet FedRAMP Moderate (or equivalent) authorization, not FedRAMP High. FedRAMP High is not a CMMC requirement but may be required by contract or specific agencies.

Exact Extracts:

DoD CMMC Scoping Guide: “External Cloud Service Providers must meet FedRAMP Moderate equivalency when storing, processing, or transmitting CUI.”

CMMC Assessment Guide: “The baseline requirement for CUI in cloud environments is FedRAMP Moderate; higher levels may be contractually required.”

Why other options are not correct:

A: Equivalency is allowed, but only to FedRAMP Moderate level.

C/D: Incorrect, because CMMC Level 2 does not mandate FedRAMP High.
