B. It must be in an area designated as a Restricted Area - ANSWER When designing a new multi-story government Special Access Program Facility (SAPF), the architect provided identical drawings for two three-story buildings to the security officer. One drawing is for a building on the installation to be occupied only by contracting Company X. The other is for the command headquarters building on the installation.The design reveals floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor for the main conference rooms and front office staff. The drawings indicate a parking lot adjacent to the building separated by a four-foot-wide, handicap-accessible sidewalk. The architect placed emergency exits and stairwells at each end of the building with door hardware on the exterior to facilitate access/egress. The floor plans show interior office and conference room doors with GSA-approved locks and connectivity to the building access control badge system. The front door drawings indicate a large safety glass key lock entry door with the unit logo and designation etched in the glass. The single entry door provides access into the building lobby where visit control staff will greet people and in-process visitors. The plans identify lock boxes to be placed inside the lobby for visitors and employees to store their electronic digital devices and other prohibited items. The architect designed an open lobby leading to interior hallways, an elevator and access to the stairways. He placed the access control system central processing unit (CPU) behind the visit control desk. Typically, the CPU is located in the dispatch center.
As a result, which of the following is true regarding the placement of the CPU?
A. It may remain in the building lobby because the doors serve as adequate access control.
B. It must be in an area designated as a Restricted Area.
C. It must be in an area designated as a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility.
D. It should be moved to an area on the second floor or above, but does not need to be in a Restricted Area.

A. Bollard or chain link fence
B. Berm or moat
C. Bollard or berm
D. Berm or chain link fence

Active Barriers - ANSWER Barrier systems that require action by personnel or equipment to permit entry; define the perimeter and ensure only authorized personnel are permitted access. Examples are gates manually operated by security forces, hydraulic pop-up vehicle barriers, and electronically operated gates or turnstiles.
Passive Barriers - ANSWER Barrier systems that rely on their bulk or mass and they have no moving parts; are permanently installed or if heavy equipment is required to move or dismantle the barriers.Examples are perimeter or vehicle barriers, temporary barriers, building perimeter barriers, and interior barriers. Perimeter protection systems can include manmade obstacles such as barricades and vehicle barriers to provide for difficult approaches or exit routes. Temporary walls and rigid barriers can be employed to establish barriers against high-speed vehicle approaches to DoD installations and facilities.
