PE-16 Delivery and Removal

Description

Effectively enforcing authorizations for entry and exit of information system components may require restricting access to delivery areas and possibly isolating the areas from the information system and media libraries.

Applicability

This Control applies to facilities that house information systems (e.g., data centers, server rooms or closets) considered mission critical and which require a higher level of security due to the nature of one of the following:

  1. type of equipment
  2. type of data the equipment stores

Responsibility for ensuring physical security to information resources may be part of the job function for departmental staff who may include, but not be limited to, information technology staff, information resource custodians, facility coordinators, supervisors, managers, and others.

Implementation

TAMU-CC authorizes, monitors, and controls system components entering and exiting data processing facilities and maintains records of those items.
