D is too expensive. Hiring a guard isn't cost-effective long-term.

I agree, but A could also work. Mantraps can prevent unauthorized access.

I'd go with B) Enclose the personnel entry area with polycarbonate plastic. Seems more secure than a duress alarm.

I’m uncertain about the polycarbonate enclosure; it could be a good barrier, but I wonder if it’s really the best value for protecting personnel.

I think we practiced a similar question about reactive controls, and I lean towards the duress alarm since it's less expensive than hiring a guard.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. What exactly do they mean by "cost-effective"? I'll need to clarify that before I can make a decision.

The guard option seems the most straightforward, but it might be the most expensive in the long run. I'll have to do some research on the relative costs.
