Cyber AB Certified CMMC Assessor (CCA) CMMC-CCA Dumps in PDF

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?

When examining a contractor's access control policy and SSP, you observe that system administrators routinely use accounts with elevated privileges for checking email and browsing internal websites.
Why is it critical to implement practice AC.L2-3.1.6 ­ Non-Privileged Account Use?

After a security audit, a contractor documents specific vulnerabilities and deficiencies in an audit report. After examining its POA&M, you realize it has a clearly defined policy on addressing these deficiencies and by when. However, after interviewing the contractor's security and compliance team, you learn that while an audit is regularly conducted, the remediating measures are not always taken, and when taken, they are not always practical. The security and compliance team informs you they have tried reaching the system administrator to explain the repercussions of this without success.
What assessment objective has the contractor failed to implement from CMMC practice
CA.L2-3.12.2 ­ Plan of Action?

When assessing an OSC's compliance with IR requirements, you realize they have deployed a system that tracks incidents, documents details, and updates the status throughout the incident response process. Personnel to whom incidents must be reported are identified and designated.
While examining their documentation, you come across an incident response template that they use to capture all relevant information and ensure consistency in reporting to the identified authorities and organizational officials. Interviewing the IR team, you learn there is an escalation process that the contractor's cybersecurity team can use to address more serious incidents. From the scenario, the contractor has met all the required objectives for CMMC practice IR.L2-3.6.2 ­ Incident Reporting, meaning its implementation of the said practice will be scored MET with a total of 5 points. For how long must the OSC retain the incident records?

While examining a contractor's audit and accountability policy, you realize they have documented types of events to be logged and defined content of audit records needed to support monitoring, analysis, investigation, and reporting of unlawful or unauthorized system activities. After the logs are analyzed, the results are fed into a system that automatically generates audit records stored for 30 days. However, mechanisms implementing system audit logging are lacking after several tests because they produce audit logs that are too limited. You find that generated logs cannot be independently used to identify the event they resulted from because the defined content specified therein is too limited. Additionally, you realize the logs are retained for 24 hours before they are automatically deleted. All of the following are required to satisfy AU.L2-3.3.1 ­ System Auditing assessment objectives [b] and [d], EXCEPT?

After you ask to examine some audit records, the contractor's system administrator informs you that there is a process to follow before accessing them. The logs are hashed using SHA-512 algorithms, and the system administrator has to run an algorithm to recalculate the hashes for the audit records to verify their integrity before running a decryption algorithm to decrypt the data. Since this might take some time, you tour the facility while interviewing personnel with audit and accountability roles. You see an employee holding the door for another without using their physical access card.
While interviewing the contractor's employees, you find that they can access all audit logging tools and tweak the settings according to their needs or requirements. Upon examining the contractor's access control policy, you realize they have not defined the measures to protect audit logging tools.
Which of the following statements accurately describes the contractor's compliance with protecting audit logging tools from unauthorized access, modification, and deletion, as required by AU.L2-3.3.8 ­ Audit Protection?

When assessing an OSC's implementation of the System and Information Integrity (SI) practices, you examine their system and information integrity policy. You find that they have documented procedures addressing system monitoring tools and techniques, along with a monitoring strategy. The OSC has implemented a user behavior analytics tool to detect abnormal behavior anddeviations from normal patterns. To ensure that only authorized users access the system, the OSC uses robust access controls and regularly audits security and system logs for unusual activities. Interviewing the network administration team, you learn they use a network monitoring tool to track inbound and outbound network traffic and identify any distinctive patterns that may suggest unauthorized use. You also learn that they use an IDS to identify suspicious activities, which are aggregated and analyzed using a state-of-the-art SIEM. The scenario mentions that the OSC uses a network monitoring tool to track inbound and outbound traffic and identify unusual patterns. However, it does not provide details on the tool's specific techniques or methods.
Which of the following techniques would be most relevant for the assessor to inquire about during the assessment?

You are assessing an OSC that uses various collaborative computing devices, such as video conferencing systems, networked whiteboards, and webcams, for remote meetings and presentations. During your assessment, you examine the OSC's collaborative device inventory and find that they have identified and documented all collaborative computing devices. Most of the identified devices have indicators (e.g., LED lights) that notify users when the devices are in use. The OSC has also implemented a policy prohibiting the remote activation of collaborative computing devices without user consent. However, you find that the web cameras can be activated remotely by authorized IT personnel for troubleshooting purposes. In addition to interviewing personnel, what other evidence would be helpful to assess the OSC's compliance with CMMC practice SC.L2-3.13.12 ­ Collaborative Device Control regarding the remote activation of web cameras? Choose all that apply.
