Cyber AB CMMC-CCA Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

The Physical Protection (PE) practices require that unmanned access points to areas containing CUI be restricted with technical controls that only allow entry to authorized personnel. While cameras, signage, and turnstiles support security, they do not actually prevent access.

Extract from PE.L2-3.10.1:

“Limit physical access to organizational information systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals.”

The strongest measure listed is one-way gates requiring credentials or intercom authorization, which directly enforces access control.

CMMC requires that remote maintenance sessions be terminated after use or after a defined period of inactivity. This ensures third-party maintenance access does not remain open and uncontrolled, preventing unauthorized persistence.

Exact Extracts:

MA.L2-3.7.5: “Require multifactor authentication and terminate remote maintenance sessions after each session or after a defined period of inactivity.”

Assessment Guide clarifies: “Assessors should confirm remote maintenance sessions are automatically terminated using technical means.”

NIST SP 800-171A Objective: “Test maintenance session termination after a set time of inactivity or completion of task.”

Why other options are not correct:

A: Limiting maintenance to third parties only is not a requirement. Internal staff may also perform maintenance.

B: Identification and monitoring are important, but the specific control required here is termination of remote sessions.

C: Limiting the number of personnel is not mandated by CMMC.

The Shared Responsibility Matrix (Customer Responsibility Matrix) is the authoritative document that specifies which security responsibilities are owned by the OSC versus the Cloud Service Provider (CSP). This enables assessors to determine which CMMC practices apply to the OSC and which are inherited from the provider.

Exact extracts:

“External Service Providers (ESPs), including CSPs, must provide a Shared Responsibility Matrix that delineates customer versus provider responsibilities.”

“Assessors should request and review this matrix to determine practice applicability.”

Why other options are incorrect:

A: Zero Trust Architecture is a design framework, not a responsibility breakdown.

C: White papers are marketing/technical resources, not binding assignments of responsibility.

D: IAM Plans address access management, not overall shared responsibilities.
