Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer
Comprehensive and Detailed in Depth Explanation:
The CMMC Code of Professional Conduct (CoPC) prohibits harassment and discrimination in all interactions related to CMMC roles, including post-assessment social events. The observing CCA must act professionally and ethically. Option A (reporting to Cyber AB) escalates prematurely without attempting internal resolution, which the CoPC encourages first. Option C (ignoring) fails to address a potential violation, breaching the CCA's duty to uphold the CoPC. Option D (public confrontation) risks unprofessional escalation. Option B (discreet reminder) aligns with CoPC's emphasis on addressing violations internally and professionally, allowing the offending CCA to correct their behavior while maintaining team integrity.
Extract from Official Document (CoPC):
* Paragraph 3.6(2) - Lawful and Ethical Practices (pg. 8):"Refrain from harassment ordiscrimination, sexual or otherwise, in all interactions with individuals encountered in connection with activities related to your role in the CMMC ecosystem."
* Paragraph 4.1(1)(a) - Violation Reporting (pg. 10):"Attempt to rectify the violation with the individual or entity in question prior to reporting." References:
CMMC Code of Professional Conduct, Paragraphs 3.6(2) and 4.1(1)(a).
