Using data encryption software such as BitLocker
Installing a cypher lock on the door
Setting up a video camera to monitor the entrance/exit to the lab
Correct Incorrect Unanswered
Answer Description
Encryption is not a physical security measure. Anything regarding access control such as a cypher lock is considered physical security. Video cameras/surveillance are also physical security features, as is controlling access with something you have such as a smart card.
