Explanation
The Operations Security (OpSec) Domain covers the protection of production systems and operational processes, including the physical and logical controls around media like backup tapes. This domain governs controls such as media handling, secure storage, chain of custody for physical media, and access restrictions to sensitive backup data. Telecommunications and Network Security focuses on data in transit, while BCP/DRP addresses continuity planning. Operations Security is the correct domain for physically securing backup tapes against unauthorized access.
