Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-8537 DSN08.02 SV-9034r1_rule ECSC-1 unknown
Description
Requirement: The IAO should ensure that a system is installed to provide emergency announcements and messages in accordance with public law in response to 11 September 2001 and/or local building codes. Local building codes have for years required that certain facilities provide for emergency alert/evacuation announcement sound systems that are used for life safety. These types of systems are even more useful and may be required by federal or public law in the wake of 9/11/2001. In addition to life safety announcements about an evacuation or emergency condition within a facility, these systems may be used for security alerts that could, for example, instruct site personnel to be on the look out for an intruder or other unauthorized person.
