Which PFSP section would cover access control?

• A. Alarm and surveillance
• B. Access control plan
• C. Incident response
• D. Training

Answer: (B)

Access control is about who is allowed to enter and move through the facility and under what conditions. In a Port Facility Security Plan, the section that governs these rules is the access control plan. This part spells out how credentials are issued and revoked, how entry points and doors are controlled and monitored, how visitors and contractors are managed, and how vehicle access is handled. It also describes enforcement, audits, and coordination with other security measures to ensure consistent and proper access across the site.

The other sections serve related functions but not the explicit definition and management of access plans: alarm and surveillance covers detection and monitoring systems, incident response handles actions after a security event, and training focuses on educating personnel about security procedures.
