Latest [Dec 22, 2025] Cyber AB CMMC-CCA Exam Practice Test To Gain Brilliante Result [Q16-Q32]

Q16. During your review of an OSC’s system security control, you focus on CMMC practice SC.L2-3.13.9 – Connections Termination. The OSC uses a custom web application for authorized personnel to access CUI remotely. Users log in with usernames and passwords. The application is hosted on a dedicated server within the company’s internal network. The server operating system utilizes default settings for connection timeouts.
Network security is managed through a central firewall, but no specific rules are configured for terminating inactive connections associated with the CUI access application. Additionally, there is no documented policy or procedure outlining a defined period of inactivity for terminating remote access connections. Interviews with IT personnel reveal that they rely solely on users to remember to log out of the application after completing their work. How could the firewall be configured to help achieve the objectives of CMMC practice SC.L2-3.13.9 – Connections Termination, for the remote access application?

Q17. A C3PAO has contracted by an OSC to perform its assessment. Before the assessment, the Lead Assessor asks the OSC to provide an extensive list of evidence, some of which is optional and beyond the minimum requirements. The OSC is not able to fulfill the entire request. One missing document was a current and organized list of the OSC’s evidence and mappings.
Given that this is a Level 2 Assessment, what should the Lead Assessor tell the OSC?

Q18. During discussions with an OSC, the assessment team learned that many employees often need to work from remote locations and, as a result, are permitted to access the organization’s internal networks from those remote locations. To ensure secure remote access requirements are being met, remote access sessions need NOT be:

Q19. A representative of a CMMC Level 2 certified DoD contractor has reached out to you as a CCA for an explanation of FedRAMP equivalency. They want to use a Cloud Service Offering (CSO) from a renowned CSP, but in light of the DoD FedRAMP equivalency memo, they are reluctant. In your conversation, you learn that although the CSO has impressive features, the assessment by a FedRAMP 3PAO resulted in a Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) that the CSP is remedying. What is the main reason the contractor shouldn’t use the CSP’s services?

Q20. In validating the OSC’s implementation of AC.L2-3.1.16: Wireless Access Authorization, the CCA observes various personal and non-enterprise devices connected to the OSC’s Wi-Fi. Because organizations handle wireless access differently, the CCA must locate evidence showing who has ultimate authority over wireless access. Which authority is acceptable for authorizing wireless access?

Q21. What should the Lead Assessor do to BEST ensure the evidence supplied effectively meets the intent of the standard for a practice?

Q22. The Assessment Team is meeting with the OSC team and experiences a situation where some members of the OSC team describe the IT infrastructure differently from others. In some discussions, one person identifies a series of ESPs, while another describes the infrastructure as on-premises. What should the Lead Assessor do to clarify the actual operational environment?

Q23. After you ask to examine some audit records, the contractor’s system administrator informs you that there is a process to follow before accessing them. The logs are hashed using SHA-512 algorithms, and the system administrator has to run an algorithm to recalculate the hashes for the audit records to verify their integrity before running a decryption algorithm to decrypt the data. Since this might take some time, you tour the facility while interviewing personnel with audit and accountability roles. You see an employee holding the door for another without using their physical access card. While interviewing the contractor’s employees, you find that they can access all audit logging tools and tweak the settings according to their needs or requirements. Upon examining the contractor’s access control policy, you realize they have not defined the measures to protect audit logging tools. Considering CMMC AU.L2-3.3.8 – Audit Protection and best practices, which of the following is the MOST concerning finding regarding the employees’ access to audit logging tools?

Q24. During the assessment process, a CCA encounters a situation in which the evidence provided by the OSC raises concerns about its adequacy and alignment with the CMMC practice being assessed. What priority factors must the CCA have considered to arrive at these concerns?

Q25. An engineering company works on DoD contracts that involve handling CUI. They use hardcopy media such as printed paper, microfilms, and digital media, including flash drives, SSDs, DVDs, and internal and external hard drives. During a CMMC assessment, you discover the engineeringcompany has defined procedures addressing media storage and access governed by an access control policy. All media containing CUI is marked and stored in biometrically locked cabinets. To store CUI on digital media, an authorized user must be identified using their biometrics or authenticated using an integrated MFA solution. To access non-digital media, the user must be on a defined list of authorized personnel and sign three forms. You also learn that the contractor maintains a comprehensive inventory of all CUI media. Basing your answer on the scenario, how would you score the contractor’s implementation of CMMC practice MP.L2-3.8.1 – Media Protection?

Q26. A Defense Contractor is preparing for their upcoming CMMC Level 2 assessment. One of the key controls they need to address is CMMC practice MP.L2-3.8.5 – Media Accountability, which deals with maintaining accountability for media containing CUI during transport outside of controlled areas. The organization regularly needs to transport physical media, such as hard drives and backup tapes, between their primary data center and an off-site storage facility. In the past, they have simply used standard packaging and commercial shipping services to move this media. Which of the following is NOT an assessment method for MP.L2-3.8.5
– Media Accountability?

Q27. A C3PAO Assessment Team has completed assessing an OSC’s implementation of the CMMC practices.
They are now in the process of archiving the assessment artifacts as per the CAP. However, the OSC informed the Assessment Team that they could not take the artifacts offsite even after completing the assessment. The Assessment Team is concerned that the OSC may change the assessment artifacts, compromising their integrity. What should the Assessment Team recommend that the OSC do to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the Assessment Artifacts?

Q28. The Certification Assessment Readiness Review (CA-RR) aims to determine whether the OSC and the Assessment Team are ready to conduct the assessment as planned and within the allocated time. It addresses all of the following aspects of readiness to conduct the assessment except which one?

Q29. An OSC seeking Level 2 certification wants to develop and launch a website for customers to purchase items online and submit contact forms. The OSC plans to host the web server in their own data center while also maintaining the security of their internal IT environment. Based on this information, what would be the BEST approach?

Q30. A C3PAO has hired a full-time CCA and included them in an Assessment Team sent to conduct a CMMC assessment. However, as part of their agreement with Cyber AB, the CCA and, by extension, the C3PAO are expected to uphold a set of values during the assessment. What document sets the expectations for accredited and credentialed entities authorized to deliver CMMC services under Cyber AB licensing?

Q31. During your review of an OSC’s system security control, you focus on CMMC practice SC.L2-3.13.9 – Connections Termination. The OSC uses a custom web application for authorized personnel to access CUI remotely. Users log in with usernames and passwords. The application is hosted on a dedicated server within the company’s internal network. The server operating system utilizes default settings for connection timeouts.
Network security is managed through a central firewall, but no specific rules are configured for terminating inactive connections associated with the CUI access application. Additionally, there is no documented policy or procedure outlining a defined period of inactivity for terminating remote access connections. Interviews with IT personnel reveal that they rely solely on users to remember to log out of the application after completing their work. Based on the scenario, what is the MOST concerning aspect from a CMMC compliance perspective regarding CMMC practice SC.L2-3.13.9 – Connections Termination?

Q32. During a CMMC Level 2 assessment, the OSC’s Assessment Official asks the Lead Assessor if they can provide a preliminary score before the assessment is complete to help prioritize remediation efforts. What should the Lead Assessor do?
