During a security review of a data center, you must select a physical control that uses a small enclosed space containing two interlocking doors, ensuring only one person can pass through at a time to prevent tailgating into the secure area. Which measure meets this requirement?
An access control vestibule, also known as a mantrap, consists of a small room with two interlocking doors. Only one door can be open at a time, so an individual must fully enter and authenticate before the second door unlocks. This design stops tailgating and piggybacking, providing strong physical access control. A bollard restricts vehicle movement, security guards provide human monitoring, and video surveillance records activity but does not physically stop someone from entering.
