But biometric devices can be expensive. Maybe Adam should look into using security tokens instead.

I agree with Audria, biometric devices are more secure and reliable than other options.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Biometric devices can be a bit pricey, and proximity cards might not provide the level of security the CEO wants. I think D) One Time Password is a solid choice.

I'd go with B) Security token. It's a classic two-factor solution that's both secure and cost-effective. Plus, it's easy to implement and use.
