[All CCSP Questions]

Which of the following is considered a physical control?

  • A. Fences
  • B. Ceilings
  • C. Carpets
  • D. Doors
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
Fences are physical controls; carpets and ceilings are architectural features, and a door is not necessarily a control: the lock on the door would be a physical security control. Although you might think of a door as a potential answer, the best answer is the fence; the exam will have questions where more than one answer is correct, and the answer that will score you points is the one that is most correct.

Selected Answer: A
Physical controls are security measures designed to restrict or control physical access to facilities, resources, or assets. Fences are a common physical security control that helps prevent unauthorized access to a secure area. Why Not the Others? B. Ceilings → While they are part of a building’s structure, they are not a security control in themselves. C. Carpets → These are for comfort and aesthetics, not for security. D. Doors → While doors can be part of physical security, they must be equipped with locks or access controls to be considered an effective physical security measure.

the door is not a physical control but the lock is . but fences have gates that would have locks as well. So if the fence has a gate with a lock is it still a physical control.

Usually, the word 'door' is not used in security. Gate is a preferred word.
