PE-13 Fire Protection

Control

Employ and maintain fire detection and suppression systems that are supported by an independent energy source.

Discussion

The provision of fire detection and suppression systems applies primarily to organizational facilities that contain concentrations of system resources, including data centers, server rooms, and mainframe computer rooms. Fire detection and suppression systems that may require an independent energy source include sprinkler systems and smoke detectors. An independent energy source is an energy source, such as a microgrid, that is separate, or can be separated, from the energy sources providing power for the other parts of the facility.

Assessment Objective

  1. fire detection systems are employed;
  2. employed fire detection systems are supported by an independent energy source;
  3. employed fire detection systems are maintained;
  4. fire suppression systems are employed;
  5. employed fire suppression systems are supported by an independent energy source;
  6. employed fire suppression systems are maintained.

Assessment Method

PE-13(01) Detection Systems — Automatic Activation and Notification

Control

Employ fire detection systems that activate automatically and notify [Assignement: personnel or roles] and [Assignement: emergency responders] in the event of a fire.

Discussion

Organizations can identify personnel, roles, and emergency responders if individuals on the notification list need to have access authorizations or clearances (e.g., to enter to facilities where access is restricted due to the classification or impact level of information within the facility). Notification mechanisms may require independent energy sources to ensure that the notification capability is not adversely affected by the fire.

Assessment Objective

  1. fire detection systems that activate automatically are employed in the event of a fire;
  2. fire detection systems that notify [Assignement: personnel or roles] automatically are employed in the event of a fire;
  3. fire detection systems that notify [Assignement: emergency responders] automatically are employed in the event of a fire.

Assessment Method

PE-13(02) Suppression Systems — Automatic Activation and Notification

Control

  1. Employ fire suppression systems that activate automatically and notify [Assignement: personnel or roles] and [Assignement: emergency responders] ; and
  2. Employ an automatic fire suppression capability when the facility is not staffed on a continuous basis.

Discussion

Organizations can identify specific personnel, roles, and emergency responders if individuals on the notification list need to have appropriate access authorizations and/or clearances (e.g., to enter to facilities where access is restricted due to the impact level or classification of information within the facility). Notification mechanisms may require independent energy sources to ensure that the notification capability is not adversely affected by the fire.

Assessment Objective

    1. fire suppression systems that activate automatically are employed;
    2. fire suppression systems that notify [Assignement: personnel or roles] automatically are employed;
    3. fire suppression systems that notify [Assignement: emergency responders] automatically are employed;
  2. an automatic fire suppression capability is employed when the facility is not staffed on a continuous basis.

PE-13(04) Inspections

Control

Ensure that the facility undergoes [Assignement: frequency] fire protection inspections by authorized and qualified inspectors and identified deficiencies are resolved within [Assignement: time period].

Discussion

Authorized and qualified personnel within the jurisdiction of the organization include state, county, and city fire inspectors and fire marshals. Organizations provide escorts during inspections in situations where the systems that reside within the facilities contain sensitive information.

Assessment Objective

  1. the facility undergoes fire protection inspections [Assignement: frequency] by authorized and qualified inspectors;
  2. the identified deficiencies from fire protection inspections are resolved within [Assignement: time period].

Assessment Method

Examine
