The organization shall define, implement, and enforce policy and procedures regarding emergency and safety systems, fire protection systems, and environment controls for its critical systems.
Guidance
The below measures should be considered:
- Protect unattended computer equipment with padlocks or a locker and key system.
- Fire suppression mechanisms should take the organization's critical system environment into account
(e.g., water sprinkler systems could be hazardous in specific environments).
The organization shall implement fire detection devices that activate and notify key
personnel automatically in the event of a fire.
The operation of basic services (such as electricity, telecommunications, water supply, sewerage, heating, ventilation and air conditioning) will be monitored to ensure that their capacity covers business growth.
For example, data processing equipment, as well as other important equipment, should be placed in the premises safely and with consideration. Placement should restrict unauthorized access to devices.
Alarm systems monitor the level of key environmental conditions (e.g. temperature and humidity) that can adversely affect the operation of data processing equipment. There should also be a functioning fire alarm system in the environment.
Surge protectors prevent current level rises and falls from damaging the equipment. Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), on the other hand, guarantee a limited amount of battery power, which allows you to work even during short power outages. Critical equipment is held in connection to a UPS.
