Description
Failure to test IDS functionality on a periodic basis could result in undetected alarm sensor or other system failure. This in-turn could result in an undetected intrusion into a secure room (AKA: collateral classified open storage area) and the undetected loss or compromise of classified material.

Check Text ( C-49242r770093_chk )
This check is concerned with verification of IDS functionality where IDS is used as a supplemental control for vaults or secure rooms/areas containing SIPRNet assets. Following are the required checks: Check #1. Checks of ALL individual alarm sensors (BMS, motion, glass break, etc.) will be conducted at least semi-annually. Check #2. Valid tests IAW best practices using government or industry standards and tools will be used to conduct the checks. Check #3. Written procedures will be developed for tests of each sensor type in use at a site. Check #4. Results of testing will be maintained on file for at least 1-year. TACTICAL ENVIRONMENT: This check is applicable where Vaults/Secure Rooms are used to protect classified materials or systems in a tactical environment. The only exception will be for urgent (short term) tactical operations or other contingency situations where fixed facilities and equipment are not yet present or incapable of being used.
