Answer: D
All are physical access controls designed to protect the
organization from unauthorized access. However, biometric
door locks, such as a fingerprint scanner, provide
advantages since they are harder to duplicate, easier to
deactivate and individually identified. Biometric door
locks, using an individual's unique body features are used
for access when extremely sensitive facilities must be
protected.
