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.

If the OSC cannot remediate deficiencies during the POA&M Close-Out process, the Lead Assessor must issue a recommendation of NOT MET, and the OSC will not be certified. CMMC requires all Level 2 practices to be MET (with limited exceptions under defined POA&M close-out rules).

Exact Extracts:

CMMC Assessment Guide: “If practices cannot be met within the POA&M Close-Out process, the Lead Assessor must not recommend certification.”

DoD policy: “CMMC Level 2 requires that all 110 practices be met. A failed POA&M Close-Out results in a final determination of NOT MET.”

“There is no provisional certification status in CMMC.”

Why the other options are not correct:

A: Assessments are not paused indefinitely; unresolved deficiencies result in NOT MET.

B: Justification alone does not satisfy requirements.

C: Provisional status does not exist in CMMC.

In CMMC scoping, assets are categorized based on where CUI is processed, stored, or transmitted. According to the CMMC Scoping Guide for Level 2, if CUI is only stored and used in HQ and Site A, those locations contain CUI Assets. Since Site B neither stores, processes, nor transmits CUI, its assets are considered Out of Scope.

Exact extracts:

“CUI Assets are those that store, process, or transmit CUI.”

“Assets that do not process, store, or transmit CUI, and cannot provide access to CUI, are considered Out-of-Scope.”

“Only those assets in the scope of CMMC assessment will be evaluated against practices.”

Why the other options are incorrect:

B: Site B has VPN connectivity, but if it does not use or process CUI, its assets remain out of scope. Connectivity alone does not bring it into scope.

C/D: The terms “Certification in Risk Management Assurance” are not valid CMMC asset categories.
