You are the Network Administrator for a college. You watch a large number of people (some not even students) going in and out of areas with campus computers (libraries, computer labs, etc.). You have had a problem with laptops being stolen.
What is the most cost effective method to prevent this?
- Smart card access to all areas with computers.
- Use laptop locks.
- Video surveillance on all areas with computers.
- Appoint a security guard.
Answer(s): B
Explanation:
It is very inexpensive to put physical locks on laptops that connect them to tables preventing them from being easily stolen.
Answer options C, A, and D are incorrect. All of these methods would help ameliorate the situation, but would not be cost effective. All are more expensive than the simpler idea of using laptop locks.
