QuestionQ172

VerifiedSecurity Operations

You are the Network Administrator for a college. You observe many people, including some who are not students, entering and leaving areas containing campus computers (libraries, computer labs, etc.). Laptops have been stolen. What is the most cost-effective method of preventing this?

Explanation

Laptop locks provide direct physical theft prevention at relatively low cost per laptop. Surveillance, security guards, and smart-card access require more expensive infrastructure or ongoing staffing and do not secure each laptop as directly.
