PE-06 [H] Monitoring Physical Access

Control

  1. Monitor physical access to the facility where the system resides to detect and respond to physical security incidents;
  2. Review physical access logs [Assignement: frequency] and upon occurrence of [Assignement: events] ; and
  3. Coordinate results of reviews and investigations with the organizational incident response capability.

Discussion

Physical access monitoring includes publicly accessible areas within organizational facilities. Examples of physical access monitoring include the employment of guards, video surveillance equipment (i.e., cameras), and sensor devices. Reviewing physical access logs can help identify suspicious activity, anomalous events, or potential threats. The reviews can be supported by audit logging controls, such as [AU-2](#au-2) , if the access logs are part of an automated system. Organizational incident response capabilities include investigations of physical security incidents and responses to the incidents. Incidents include security violations or suspicious physical access activities. Suspicious physical access activities include accesses outside of normal work hours, repeated accesses to areas not normally accessed, accesses for unusual lengths of time, and out-of-sequence accesses.

Assessment Objective

  1. physical access to the facility where the system resides is monitored to detect and respond to physical security incidents;
    1. physical access logs are reviewed [Assignement: frequency];
    2. physical access logs are reviewed upon occurrence of [Assignement: events];
    1. results of reviews are coordinated with organizational incident response capabilities;
    2. results of investigations are coordinated with organizational incident response capabilities.

PE-06(01) [H] Intrusion Alarms and Surveillance Equipment

Control

Monitor physical access to the facility where the system resides using physical intrusion alarms and surveillance equipment.

Discussion

Physical intrusion alarms can be employed to alert security personnel when unauthorized access to the facility is attempted. Alarm systems work in conjunction with physical barriers, physical access control systems, and security guards by triggering a response when these other forms of security have been compromised or breached. Physical intrusion alarms can include different types of sensor devices, such as motion sensors, contact sensors, and broken glass sensors. Surveillance equipment includes video cameras installed at strategic locations throughout the facility.

Assessment Objective

  1. physical access to the facility where the system resides is monitored using physical intrusion alarms;
  2. physical access to the facility where the system resides is monitored using physical surveillance equipment.

PE-06(04) [H] Monitoring Physical Access to Systems

Control

Monitor physical access to the system in addition to the physical access monitoring of the facility at [Assignement: physical spaces].

Discussion

Monitoring physical access to systems provides additional monitoring for those areas within facilities where there is a concentration of system components, including server rooms, media storage areas, and communications centers. Physical access monitoring can be coordinated with intrusion detection systems and system monitoring capabilities to provide comprehensive and integrated threat coverage for the organization.

Assessment Objective

physical access to the system is monitored in addition to the physical access monitoring of the facility at [Assignement: physical spaces].

Assessment Method
