Q

9 Best Practices for Entry Controls

A
  • Limit number of entrances to facility and computer rooms
  • Doors should resits forced entry
  • Screening device at every entrance
  • Log entries and exits
  • Watch for property leaving facility
  • Secure all openings
  • After unusual diversion, search facility
  • After suspicious activity, review logs
  • Do unscheduled inspections
18
Q

Primary Power Source

A
  • Provides day to day power

- Dedicated feeders from utility

19
Q

Alternate Power Source

A
  • Generator

- Backup supply when primary is down

20
Q

In-line UPS

A

Constantly provides power from its inverter even when power line is functioning property

21
Q

Standby UPS

A

Monitors power line and switches to battery power when problem deetected

22
Q

Desirable Features of a UPS

A
  • High MTBF Values
  • Allow for automatic system shutdown
  • Surge protection and line conditioning
  • Long battery life
  • EMI/RFI filters to prevent data errors
23
Q

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)

A
  • Line noise

- Cause by lightning/electrical motors

24
Q

Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)

A
  • Line noise

- Fluorescent lighting, radio signals

25
Q

Transient Noise

A

Disturbance imposed on a power line

26
Q

2 Excess Power

SS

A
  • Spike: Momentary high voltage

- Surge: Prolonged high voltage

27
Q

2 Power Loss

FB

A
  • Fault: Momentary power out

- Blackout: Prolonged loss of power

28
Q

2 Power Degredation

SB

A
  • Sag: Momentary low voltage

- Brownout: Prolonged power supply that is below normal voltage

29
Q

4 Legs of a Fire

HFOC

    +Suppress: Water/soda acid
  • *Class B (Bottle): Liquid
    + Suppress: CO2, Argon, FM-200
  • *Class C (Circuit): Electrical
    + Suppress: Halon, CO2, non-conductive
  • Class D (Death): Flammable
    + Suppress: Dry Powder
  • Class K (Kitchen): Kitchen
    + Suppress: Wet Chemicals
31
Q

Ionization Smoke Detector

A

Reacts to charged particles of smoke (Early warning)

32
Q

Thermal Detector

A

Alarm when there is a change in temperature

33
Q

Photoelectric Smoke Detector

A

Alarms with source of light interrupted

34
Q

Infrared Flame Detector

A

Reacts to emissions of flames

35
Q

Protocol to stop the use of Halon

A

Montreal Protocol (1994), replaced with FM-200 and Inergen

36
Q

Wet Pipes

A
  • Always contain water
  • Usually discharged at predefined temperature
  • Pipes can freeze and break
37
Q

Dry Pipes

A
  • Water not in pipe
  • Release after a delay
  • Allows for shutdown before release
38
Q

Pre-Action System - Water Pipes

A
  • Combo of wet and dry pipe system

- Water released into pipe and link must melt before water is released

39
Q

Duluge System

A
  • Same as dry pipe but the sprinkler head is open

- Releases a lot of water fast
