Explanation

Guards are physical security personnel who can actively verify identity, challenge unauthorized individuals, and physically deny entry to a sensitive area. They provide dynamic, human-based access control. CCTV is a detective control - it records and monitors activity but does not physically prevent access. Bollards are designed to block vehicle access, not individual pedestrian access. Spike strips are vehicle deterrents. Since the requirement is to 'limit an individual's access,' guards are the only option listed that can actively and physically control whether a specific person enters a sensitive area.
