Master Assessment Datasheet

Implementation Guidance

Determine if: - visitors are escorted. - visitor activity is controlled [PE-03_ODP[06]; circumstances requiring visitor escorts and control of visitor activity are defined].

Validation Procedures

Examine: [SELECT FROM: Physical and environmental protection policy; procedures addressing physical access control; physical access control logs or records; inventory records of physical access control devices; system entry and exit points; records of key and lock combination changes; storage locations for physical access control devices; physical access control devices; list of security safeguards controlling access to designated publicly accessible areas within facility; system security plan; other relevant documents or records]. Interview: [SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel with physical access control responsibilities; organizational personnel with information security responsibilities]. Test: [SELECT FROM: Organizational processes for physical access control; mechanisms supporting and/or implementing physical access control; physical access control devices].
