CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) — Question 1029

A company's loss control department identifies theft as a recurring loss type over the past year. Based on the department's report, the Chief Information Officer
(CIO) wants to detect theft of datacenter equipment.
Which of the following controls should be implemented?

Answer options

• A. Biometrics
• B. Cameras
• C. Motion detectors
• D. Mantraps

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Cameras are effective for monitoring and recording activities in the datacenter, providing visual evidence that can help deter theft. While biometrics, motion detectors, and mantraps offer security measures, they do not provide the same level of surveillance and documentation needed to specifically address theft incidents.
