CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-003) — Question 140

Which of the following methods should a physical penetration tester employ to access a rarely used door that has electronic locking mechanisms?

Answer options

• A. Lock picking
• B. Impersonating
• C. Jamming
• D. Tailgating
• E. Bypassing

Correct answer: E

Explanation

Bypassing is the correct method as it involves circumventing the electronic locking mechanisms directly. Lock picking and jamming do not apply to electronic locks, while impersonating and tailgating are more suited for gaining access through social engineering rather than technical means.
