Explanation

NOTE: The given correct answer of A (Mantrap) and F (Locked doors) is questionable. Mantraps - double-door entry systems that trap intruders - are actually expensive to install, making them a poor fit for the 'inexpensive' criterion. Cable locks (B) are typically the go-to inexpensive measure that directly tethers a computer to a desk. Locked doors (F) are genuinely inexpensive and effectively prevent unauthorized access to the room. Many exam prep sources and real exam keys indicate B and F as the correct pairing. If your exam lists A and F, treat it as a content error, but understand that locked doors (F) are always correct, and cable locks (B) directly prevent physical removal of equipment at minimal cost.
