Digital evidence lockers and offline backup media for the police department currently sit on open shelves in a shared admin office. What facility control change is most appropriate?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Evidence and backup tapes are not coffee-room decor. They need a tighter zone—locks, limited keys, and logs—than the shared admin desks. Treat them like the high-value assets they are.
Full Explanation
Evidence storage and backup media require elevated physical controls relative to general office areas: restricted entry, accountability logging, and protection against theft, tampering, and environmental damage. Differentiating facility zones by asset sensitivity is a Domain 3 facility-control expectation. Open-office storage undermines chain of custody and media confidentiality.
