A Chief Executive Officer (CEO) suspects someone in the lab testing environment is stealing confidential information after working hours when no one else is around. Which of the following actions can help to prevent this specific threat?
A. Implement time-of-day restrictions.
B. Audit file access times.
C. Secretly install a hidden surveillance camera.
D. Require swipe-card access to enter the lab.
A — Time of day restrictions can ensure that a user has access to certain records only during certain hours
Question says ‘prevent’, I think answer should be A
I agree. D will tell security who enters the lab, not if they are stealing information. Time of day restrictions (A) would prevent someone from stealing information after hours.
A. Implement time-of-day restrictions: This should be the better answer according to the question.
Although D is marked as the answer, implementing restrictions of when you can enter the lab should also be in place. (time-of-day restrictions)
