Which of the following is NOT a domain in the CMMC framework?

  1. Communication Security

  2. Identification and Authentication

  3. Incident Response

  4. Asset Management

The correct answer is: Communication Security

The CMMC framework consists of a variety of domains that encompass the necessary practices and processes to secure Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) within the defense supply chain. Each domain addresses specific security objectives and controls. In this context, "Communication Security" is not listed as an individual domain. While communication aspects may fall under broader categories like the protection of data in transit and ensuring secure communication protocols, they are typically integrated into other domains rather than existing as a standalone domain within the CMMC framework. On the other hand, "Identification and Authentication," "Incident Response," and "Asset Management" are well-defined domains within the CMMC. "Identification and Authentication" focuses on ensuring that users are correctly identified and appropriately authenticated before accessing systems. "Incident Response" involves the processes to manage and respond to security incidents effectively, and "Asset Management" addresses the organization and classification of information systems and assets critical to security. Understanding the specific domains within CMMC is key to mastering the framework and effectively implementing cybersecurity practices that meet the necessary compliance requirements for organizations in the defense sector.
