Selected Answer: A
D. Tailgating: This refers to an unauthorized person physically following an authorized person through a secured entry point without using their own credentials. It would not produce multiple log entries from the same badge

Selected Answer: D
The correct answer is D. Tailgating. Tailgating happens when an unauthorized person follows an authorized person into a secure area by closely following them through a door or gate without proper access. The multiple entries from an employee's ID badge within a short time period (two minutes) suggest that the employee may have entered and allowed someone else to follow them through, which is typical of tailgating. Here’s a quick rundown of the other options: A. RFID cloning: This would involve copying the RFID credentials (ID badge) and using them to gain unauthorized access. However, there’s no indication that the ID badge itself was cloned, only that multiple entries are logged in a short period.
