Cyber AB CMMC-CCA Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Malicious code protection is typically implemented and managed by system or network administrators, who configure, deploy, and monitor anti-malware solutions. Interviews with these administrators provide direct evidence of control implementation.

Exact Extracts:

SI.L2-3.14.2: “Provide protection from malicious code at appropriate locations within organizational information systems.”

CMMC Assessment Guide: “Interviews should be conducted with administrators responsible for deployment and monitoring of malicious code protection.”

NIST SP 800-171A (SI.L2-3.14.2): “Interview system or network administrators to determine how malicious code protection is implemented.”

Why other options are not correct:

A (developers): Developers do not typically manage system-wide malicious code protections.

C (audit personnel): They review logs, not deploy/manage protections.

D (security advisory staff): They track alerts but don’t operate malicious code defenses.

IA.L2-3.5.7 requires password complexity rules that include uppercase, lowercase, numeric, and special characters. The given policy addresses three requirements but does not mandate at least one special character.

Extract:

“Enforce password complexity by requiring combinations of upper-case letters, lower-case letters, numbers, and special characters.”

Thus, the missing requirement is the use of a special character.

Applicable Requirement (CMMC Scoping Guidance – Specialized Assets): Specialized Assets (e.g., OT, IoT, GFE, test equipment) are not exempt from CMMC practices. OSCs must provide:

Documented identification in SSP/inventory,

Justification of specialized handling,

Evidence that risk-based security measures are implemented.

Why D is Correct: Assessors must see evidence that isolation is actually implemented (not just planned), plus supporting artifacts showing how remaining applicable practices are addressed (monitoring, inventory, access, etc.). Planned measures alone are insufficient.

Why Other Options Are Insufficient:

A: Installation/config builds do not show operational isolation.

B: Scoping statements alone do not demonstrate implementation.

C: SSP language is descriptive but must be supported by implementation evidence.
