Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The best option to minimize the risk of utility supply interruption for a hospital's building controls system is to use digital protection and control devices capable of minimizing the adverse impact to critical utility. Digital protection and control devices are devices that monitor and regulate the utility supply, such as electricity, water, or gas, and detect and respond to any faults, anomalies, or disruptions in the utility supply. Digital protection and control devices can minimize the adverse impact to critical utility by isolating the affected components, switching to alternative sources, adjusting the load or demand, or activating backup or emergency systems.Digital protection and control devices can help to ensure the continuity and reliability of the utility supply, and to prevent or mitigate any potential damage or harm to the hospital's building controls system, or to the patients and staff12.Reference:CISSP CBK, Fifth Edition, Chapter 4, page 383;CISSP Practice Exam -- FREE 20 Questions and Answers, Question 17.

I recall that digital devices can be risky if not managed properly, so I would avoid option A. It seems counterproductive to conceal activity on the network.

I practiced a similar question where locking out access was mentioned, but I don't think that would actually help in this scenario.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like option B could also be a good choice since standardized software might help with connectivity issues.

I remember we discussed the importance of having robust digital protection systems in class. I think option D makes the most sense for minimizing risks.
