Explanation

A man trap prevents tailgating into sensitive areas, and proximity readers log and control individual employee access, together satisfying all three stated physical security requirements.

Common mistakes.

  • A. Discretionary Access Control (DAC) is a logical data access model where owners grant permissions to objects and does not address physical entry, tailgating, or door access.
  • C. Visitor logs record who has visited but rely on manual entry, do not enforce access control, and do not prevent tailgating.
  • E. Motion detection sensors detect movement and can trigger alerts or cameras but do not control who passes through a door or prevent tailgating.

Concept tested. Physical access controls - man trap and proximity readers
