CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-003) — Question 204

A penetration tester uses a pair of crutches to access a client's physical location. Which of the following is the tester most likely trying to do?

Answer options

• A. Tailgating
• B. Impersonation
• C. Badge cloning
• D. Lock picking

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The use of crutches suggests that the tester is trying to impersonate someone who may have a legitimate need for assistance, thus attempting to gain unauthorized access. Tailgating involves following someone through a secure door, badge cloning is about duplicating access credentials, and lock picking refers to manipulating locks, none of which directly relate to the use of crutches in this scenario.
