Option B sounds good too, as long as the security is tight!

Lamonica 11 months ago

I thought it had to be in the SCR only, not just any secure room.

Arlie 11 months ago

Wait, are we sure about that? What if the equivalent room isn't secure enough?

Marnie 12 months ago

I agree, option C makes the most sense.

Lisbeth 12 months ago

Definitely within the SCR or a room with equivalent security!

I thought it was important for the servers to be in the SCR specifically, but I guess option B could work if it has the same security controls.

Elfriede 1 year ago

I feel like the servers need to be in a highly secure area, but I can't recall if that means only the SCR or if other rooms qualify too.

Hyun 1 year ago

I remember a practice question about server locations, and it emphasized equivalent security measures. Maybe option C is the right choice?

Herman 1 year ago

I think the servers should be in the SCR, but I'm not entirely sure if they can be in a different secure room.

Luke 1 year ago

I'm pretty confident I know the right answer here. The servers need to be in a highly secure location, so it's either option B or C. I'll go with C since it specifically mentions the Security Control Room or an equivalent secure room.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is that the servers need to be located in an area with security controls equivalent to the Security Control Room. So options B and C seem like the most likely answers.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to be focused on the level of security, but I'm not entirely clear on the specific requirements. I'll need to think it through carefully.

This seems like a straightforward question about the proper location for CCTV and access control servers. I'll need to carefully review the options and think about the security requirements.

I'm torn between B and D. Maybe we can just install the servers in the janitor's closet for maximum security. What could go wrong?

B looks good. As long as the security controls in the other room are equivalent to the SCR, that should work.
