Discuss ISC2 ISSAP Exam Topic 2 Question 6

You are responsible for security at a building that has a lot of traffic. There are even a significant number of non-employees coming in and out of the building. You are concerned about being able to find out who is in the building at a particular time. What is the simplest way to accomplish this?

AImplement a sign in sheet at the main entrance and route all traffic through there.

BHave all people entering the building use smart cards for access.

CImplement biometric access.

DImplement cameras at all entrances.

Suggested Answer: A

to find out who is in the building at a given time.

Answer option B is incorrect. To begin with this solution would entail significant costs. Furthermore, it would be difficult to implement for non-

employees entering the building.

Answer option D is incorrect. This might work well, but would not be the simplest way to accomplish the goal. It also would be moderately

expensive.

Answer option C is incorrect. This would be neither simple, nor cost effective. And it would be difficult to coordinate with the non employees

entering the building.

Surprised that a sign-in sheet is even an option in 2023!

Cameras (D) can help, but they don’t track who’s inside.

Biometric access (C) sounds cool but is it really practical?

I disagree, smart cards (B) are way more secure.

A sign-in sheet is super simple and cheap!

Cameras at the entrances could help monitor who’s coming in, but they wouldn’t give a complete record of who’s inside at any moment.

Biometric access sounds secure, but I wonder if it might be too complicated for a building with high traffic.

I think using a sign-in sheet is the simplest method, but I'm not sure how effective it would be with so many non-employees.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I feel like smart cards could be a good option for tracking who enters and exits.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know we need to follow best practices, but I'm not entirely clear on the differences between the options provided. I'll need to do some research to understand the pros and cons of each approach.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The relationship between these roles can be complex, and I want to make sure I understand it fully before selecting an answer.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. The Order Entry system uses two files - the Currency Conversion file and the Currency Discrepancy file. I need to determine how these files are counted.
