Q

The goal of Natural Surveillance

A

Is to make criminals feel uncomfortable by providing many ways observers could potentially see them and to make all other people feel safe and comfortable by providing an open and well-designed environment

Q

CPRED: Territorial Reinforcements

A

Which creates physical designs that emphasize or extend the organization’s physical sphere of influence so legitimate users feel a sense of ownership of that space.

Q

CPRED: Maintenance

A

It basically states that criminals will be more attracted to facilities that look unkept because they’ll assume that the occupants don’t care as much about them and probably lack the resources to properly maintain and secure them.

Q

Internal Partition should not be used…

A

In Protected areas that house sensitive systems and devices because they would limit the ability to detect malicious activity on those systems.

Q

Voltage Fluctuations: Power excess

A
  • Spike - Momentary high voltage
  • Surge - Prolonged high voltage
17
Q

Voltage Fluctuations: Power loss

A
  • Fault: Momentary power outage
  • Blackout: Prolonged, Complete loss of electric power
18
Q

Voltage Fluctuations: Power Degradation

A
  • Sag|dip: Momentary low-voltage condition, from one cycle to a few seconds
  • Brownout: Prolonged power supply that is below normal voltage
  • In-Rush Current: Initial surge of current required to start a load
19
Q

Get clean and smooth distribution of power can be obtained by using:

A
  • Voltage Regulator
  • Line Conditioners
20
Q

Components affected by Specific Temperatures

A

175F: Computer system and peripheral devices
100F: Magnetic Storage Devices
350F: Paper Products

21
Q

Plenum Areas

A

Space above dropped Ceilings, the space in wall cavities, and the space under raised floors.

22
Q

Water Sprinklers: Wet Pipe
(Aka Closed-Head system)

A

System always contain water in the pipes and are usually discharged by temperature controlled sensors.

23
Q

Water Sprinklers: Dry Pipe

A

The water is not actually held in the pipes. Water is contained in a holding tank until it is released

24
Q

Water Sprinklers: Precaution

A

Precaution systems are similar to dry pipe systems in that the water is not held in the pipes, but is released when the pressurized air within the pipes is reduced

25
Q

Water Sprinklers: Deluge

A

System has its sprinkler heads wide open to allow a larger volume of water to be released in a shorter period.

26
Q

What is used to measure humidity

A

Hygrometer
