CAT II

1. Ensure that Unclassified system assets (servers, DASD, tape drives, hubs, etc.) are protected in secure locked/access controlled rooms or closets and maintained separately from general employee access.
NOTE 1: This potential VUL concerns protection of "ONLY UNCLASSIFIED" System and Network Devices.
NOTE 2: While not required; the ideal situation with larger computer systems is to locate all major system components within "raised floor" computer rooms. Regardless of the location the key factor in determining acceptable compliance is if the equipment is accessible only to properly vetted persons who require unescorted access to the equipment for performance of duties.
NOTE 3: While not preferred, if space and/or size of the Information Systems (IS) assets do not allow for being housed in a separate room or closet they may be maintained in locked Information System (IS) cabinets that preclude ease of access by unauthorized individuals.
2. Ensure that properly managed Automated Entry Control Systems (AECS), mechanical access devices such as cipher locks, or keyed locks are being used to control access to these rooms, closets or cabinets.
NOTE 4: If keyed locks are used, ensure that proper key control procedures are in place.

NOTE 4: If keyed locks are used check to ensure that proper key control procedures are in place. *If key control procedures are determined to be inadequate a finding under this STIG rule should be written.
TACTICAL ENVIRONMENT: The check is applicable for fixed (established) tactical processing environments. Not applicable to a field/mobile environment.
