UC-PHYS-03 — Protect facilities against fire, water, and environmental hazards
Design and equip facilities to protect technology assets from fire, water, temperature, humidity, and other physical and environmental threats. Deploy and independently maintain fire detection and suppression, water damage detection with accessible shutoff valves, and environmental monitoring and control at required levels. Configure alarms to notify responsible personnel automatically when protective systems activate or parameters go out of range.
