Zorluk: OrtaPhysical Security Controls

An IT security technician is designing physical entry security for a high-security server room hosting sensitive financial records. Organization policy mandates implementing measures that actively prevent tailgating (piggybacking) at the doorway, as well as enforcing multi-factor physical authentication that combines a physical security token with a biometric characteristic. Which of the following physical security controls should the technician implement to satisfy these requirements? (Select TWO.)

  1. Access control vestibule with interlocking doorsCevap
  2. Smart card reader paired with a biometric fingerprint scannerCevap
  3. C
    Anti-glare privacy filters installed on server monitors
  4. D
    Perimeter bollards positioned around the building exterior
  5. E
    Chassis intrusion switches enabled in server BIOS/UEFI settings

Cevap

The correct controls are an access control vestibule with interlocking doors and a smart card reader paired with a biometric fingerprint scanner.
An access control vestibule (mantrap) provides a physical enclosure with interlocking doors that ensures only one person can pass through authentication at a time, directly preventing tailgating. Pairing a smart card reader with a biometric fingerprint scanner enforces multi-factor physical authentication by requiring both a physical possession factor (smart card) and an inherent biological factor (fingerprint).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the physical security requirement for preventing tailgating at the server room entrance.
Select an access control vestibule (mantrap), which uses a dual-door interlocking mechanism to restrict entry to one person at a time.
Mantraps explicitly block piggybacking/tailgating by preventing the inner door from opening while the outer door is open.
2
Identify the requirement for multi-factor physical authentication.
Select the combination of a smart card badge reader and a biometric fingerprint scanner.
Multi-factor authentication requires combining two distinct authentication factors: something you have (smart card) and something you are (fingerprint biometric).
