Control Statement

The information system provides physical disconnect of collaborative computing devices in a manner that supports ease of use.

Supplemental Guidance

Failing to physically disconnect from collaborative computing devices can result in subsequent compromises of organizational information. Providing easy methods to physically disconnect from such devices after a collaborative computing session helps to ensure that participants actually carry out the disconnect activity without having to go through complex and tedious procedures.
