Explanation

A rapid response by guards or police to apprehend a possible intruder is the most effective corrective control to minimize the effects of a physical intrusion. A corrective control is a type of security control that aims to restore the normal operations and security level of a system or an organization after a security incident or violation has occurred. A physical intrusion is an unauthorized or unwanted entry into a physical facility or area that contains sensitive or valuable assets, such as IT equipment, data, or personnel. A physical intrusion can cause damage, theft, sabotage, or espionage to the assets, and compromise the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of the information or services provided by the organization. A rapid response by guards or police to apprehend a possible intruder can prevent or limit the extent of the damage or loss caused by the physical intrusion, and deter or punish the intruder. A rapid response can also provide evidence or information for further investigation or prosecution of the incident.
