What is the term for the portion after the first period in the control AC.L1-3.1.1?

  1. Control

  2. Domain

  3. Level

  4. Practice

The correct answer is: Level

The correct term for the portion after the first period in the control AC.L1-3.1.1 is "Level." In the context of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), the notation is structured in a way that uses periods to separate different elements of a control identifier. The identifier starts with the domain, which in this case is "AC" for Access Control. Following the domain, the next element typically represents the level of maturity or the specific tier within CMMC, and that is indicated by the number directly after the first period—this is what is referred to as the "Level." This numbering system establishes a hierarchy and organization within the controls, allowing practitioners to easily identify the specific areas of focus and the corresponding level of implementation required for compliance. Understanding this structure is crucial for navigating the CMMC framework effectively and ensuring that organizations meet the necessary cybersecurity requirements.
