  • Question 47

    A defense contractor retains your services to assess their information systems for CMMC compliance, particularly configuration management. The contractor uses CFEngine 3 for automated configuration and maintenance of its computer systems and networks. While chatting with the network's system admins, you realize they have deployed a modern compliance checking and monitoring tool. However, when examining their configuration management policy, you notice the contractor uses different security configurations than those recommended by product vendors. The system administrator informs you they do this to meet the minimum configuration baselines required to achieve compliance and align with organizational policy. Based on your understanding of the CMMC Assessment Process, how would you score CM.L2-3.4.2 - Security Configuration Enforcement if the contractor is tracking it in a POA&M?
  • Question 48

    AC.L2-3.1.6: Non-Privileged Account Use is being assessed. Which procedure BEST meets all of the standards for non-privileged account use?
  • Question 49

    During your review of an OSC's system security control, you focus on CMMC practice SC.L2-3.13.9 - Connections Termination. The OSC uses a custom web application for authorized personnel to access CUI remotely. Users log in with usernames and passwords. The application is hosted on a dedicated server within the company's internal network. The server operating system utilizes default settings for connection timeouts.
    Network security is managed through a central firewall, but no specific rules are configured for terminating inactive connections associated with the CUI access application. Additionally, there is no documented policy or procedure outlining a defined period of inactivity for terminating remote access connections. Interviews with IT personnel reveal that they rely solely on users to remember to log out of the application after completing their work. Based on the scenario, what is the MOST concerning aspect from a CMMC compliance perspective regarding CMMC practice SC.L2-3.13.9 - Connections Termination?
