PE-18 [H] Location of System Components
Control
Position system components within the facility to minimize potential damage from [Assignement: physical and environmental hazards] and to minimize the opportunity for unauthorized access.
Discussion
Physical and environmental hazards include floods, fires, tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes, terrorism, vandalism, an electromagnetic pulse, electrical interference, and other forms of incoming electromagnetic radiation. Organizations consider the location of entry points where unauthorized individuals, while not being granted access, might nonetheless be near systems. Such proximity can increase the risk of unauthorized access to organizational communications using wireless packet sniffers or microphones, or unauthorized disclosure of information.
Assessment Objective
system components are positioned within the facility to minimize potential damage from [Assignement: physical and environmental hazards] and to minimize the opportunity for unauthorized access.
Assessment Method
Examine
Physical and environmental protection policy
procedures addressing the positioning of system components
documentation providing the location and position of system components within the facility
locations housing system components within the facility
list of physical and environmental hazards with the potential to damage system components within the facility
system security plan
other relevant documents or records
Interview
Organizational personnel with responsibilities for positioning system components
organizational personnel with information security responsibilities
