Under 1.1.2, what does the current network diagram document?

• A. All connections between CHD and other networks, including any wireless networks.
• B. A list of all hardware assets.
• C. Power consumption of devices.
• D. Physical locations of data centers.

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that this requirement asks for a current network diagram that shows how the cardholder data environment (CHD) connects to other networks, including any wireless networks. That diagram gives a clear, up-to-date view of all paths into and out of the CHD, which is essential for understanding data flows, identifying exposure points, and ensuring proper network segmentation and firewall protection. By mapping every connection and data path, you can verify there are no unintended direct links from untrusted networks to the CHD and ensure controls are appropriately placed.

The other options aren’t what this diagram is meant to document: listing hardware assets is about asset inventory, not network topology; detailing power consumption or physical data-center locations are separate concerns not covered by the network diagram in this requirement.
