Cyber AB CMMC-CCA Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

In CMMC scoping, only assets that process, store, or transmit CUI (CUI Assets) or that can access them (Security Protection, Contractor Risk Managed, Specialized Assets) are in-scope. Since the SCADA system is firewalled off and does not handle CUI, it does not fall under CUI Asset classification and is considered Out-of-Scope.

Exact extracts:

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

“Assets that do not process, store, or transmit CUI and have no connectivity to CUI Assets are considered Out-of-Scope.”

“Specialized Assets… are only in-scope if they process, store, or transmit CUI.”

Why the other options are incorrect:

A: Inclusion requires processing/storing/transmitting CUI.

C: OSC cannot arbitrarily bring unrelated systems into scope; CUI relevance governs scope.

D: Not all Specialized Assets are in-scope; only those with CUI interaction are.

The Physical and Environmental Protection (PE) Policy is the governing artifact that describes how physical access to facilities and environments is managed and controlled. While the SSP provides a system-wide overview, and access lists provide details of who is authorized, it is the PE Policy that explicitly documents the physical access control measures required under CMMC.

Extract from PE.L2-3.10.1:

“Organizations must develop, document, and disseminate physical and environmental protection policies that govern how access to buildings and systems containing CUI is limited to authorized individuals.”

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.
