Selected Answer: C
From an ISC2 CISS-ISSAP perspective, the most effective measure to prevent a similar breach in the scenario described would be option C - Using a man-trap. A man-trap is a physical security measure that consists of two interlocking doors or gates. It allows only one person at a time into a restricted area, ensuring that unauthorized individuals cannot enter. In this case, if the laptop thief had encountered a man-trap at the exit, it would have prevented them from leaving with the stolen laptop.

Option A - Not using laptops may not be feasible as laptops are often necessary for productivity and mobility purposes. Option B - Keeping all doors locked with a guard could help increase physical security; however, it may still allow unauthorized individuals to gain access if they manage to get past or distract the guard. Option D - A sign-in log alone does not provide any physical deterrent or preventive measures. Although it can assist with identifying who was present during certain incidents, it would not actively prevent someone from stealing equipment like in this scenario.
