The company wants to be able to IDENTIFY any unauthorized individuals. If the question stated they wanted to stop individuals, then B would have been correct.

I agree with eli117. If they wanted to stop it, you would use a man-cage or require both. But they just want to identify.

Selected Answer: A
Given the requirement—to identify unauthorized individuals by monitoring who follows authorized employees—the best option is: A. Monitor camera footage corresponding to a valid access request. This allows the organization to review the footage when someone uses their access credentials and see if any unauthorized individuals are tailgating.

"IDENTIFY" A. is the only option that creates the naughty list of people who need to be retrained about the companies' tailgating policy. B. Is ridiculous and if the company could afford a security guard, it probably would have that measure in place already. C. Denied access doesn't talk about the tailgaters D. -.- Source: Verifying each answer against Chat GPT, my experience, other test banks, a written book, and weighing in the discussion from all users to create a 100% accurate guide for myself before I take the exam.

The process that would BEST satisfy the requirement of identifying unauthorized individuals entering the storage room by following an authorized employee is: A. Monitor camera footage corresponding to a valid access request. By monitoring camera footage corresponding to valid access requests, the company can review the video footage whenever someone enters the storage room using their card reader. This allows for the identification of any unauthorized individuals who may have entered the room in close proximity to an authorized employee. This method provides a targeted and efficient way to identify potential security breaches without requiring additional manual processes or inconveniencing authorized personnel unnecessarily.

Selected Answer: A
Monitoring camera footage that corresponds to a valid access request will allow the security team to identify any unauthorized individuals who might follow an authorized employee into the storage room (a tactic known as "tailgating" or "piggybacking"). This process ensures that visual evidence is collected and reviewed to detect and address any security breaches effectively.

A. Monitor camera footage corresponding to a valid access request. This option would best satisfy the requirement because it allows the company to review the footage of people entering the storage room when an authorized employee uses their access card. By doing so, the company can identify any unauthorized individuals who may be tailgating or following an authorized employee into the room.

The question states "The company wants to be able to identify any unauthorized individuals who enter the storage room by following an authorized employee." A. "A. Monitor camera footage corresponding to a valid access request." wouldn't that mean that the camera would only monitor after a VALID access reuqest therefore not recoding any unauthorized individuals who enter the storage room. Wouldn't B be the most correct answer in that case?

There is no requirement in the question about *preventing* tailgating, they just want to identify the perpetrators afterwards; so reviewing camera footage is correct.

The fact that it would be annoying stops it being the BEST answer. I would go with A.
