Which term describes a physical location such as a plant or campus where related facilities form a single operating entity?

• A. Facility
• B. FSO
• C. Export Authorization
• D. Extent of Protection

Answer: (A)

This question tests the term used for a physical place where related facilities operate as one unit. That term is facility. A facility is a physical location—such as a plant or a campus—where multiple buildings or operations are managed as a single operating entity under one security program. It’s the basic unit used in security planning and oversight.

An FSO is a person, the Facility Security Officer, not the place. An Export Authorization is a license for exporting controlled items, not a location. Extent of Protection describes how broad the security coverage is, not the physical site itself. So the described location is best called a facility.
