CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 121
Which of the following physical security controls is MOST likely to be susceptible to a false positive?
Answer options
- A. Identification card
- B. Biometric device
- C. Proximity reader
- D. Video camera
Correct answer: C
Explanation
A proximity reader is likely to register false positives because it detects authorized RFID signals without verifying the user's identity. In contrast, biometric devices and identification cards require more stringent checks to confirm a person's identity, while video cameras do not directly authenticate individuals.
