Exam SY0-601 topic 1 question 237 discussion

I feel like cameras are more accountable than a logbook.

Be careful with this one! Visitor logs hold staff accountable while escorting unauthorized personnel. A visitor log is a record of individuals who enter a facility, and it typically includes details such as the date and time of the visit, the name of the visitor, and the name of the staff member who escorted them. By maintaining a visitor log, it is possible to track who has entered the facility and who was responsible for escorting them. This can help to hold staff accountable for escorting unauthorized personnel and ensure that they are following security protocols and procedures. Locks, badges, and cameras are all important security measures, but they are not directly related to holding staff accountable for escorting unauthorized personnel.

Visitors logs hold fallible security guards accountable.

Badges are not records; they are just for display, but the logs are records that are kept and can be checked later.

The reason why an unauthorized person is been escorted is because they do not typically have ACCESS to most part of the environment. The staff is able to escort the unauthorized person and granting them access to specific areas of the environment using the STAFF BADGE.

While I hate the answer. Visitor log is it. The person issuing temp badge or getting the person to welcome the visitor needs to be held accountable for the process and should be double checked randomly to ensure it followed. The log is the first step. Cameras/badges/etc are 2nd 3rd and 4th in line.

B. Badges Badges are typically used to hold staff accountable while escorting unauthorized personnel. Staff members wear badges that identify them as authorized personnel, and the badges are visibly displayed. When escorting unauthorized personnel, the staff member can be easily identified, and the badge serves as a form of accountability.

Visitor Logs. When unauthorized personnel are escorted, it's important to maintain a record of who is being escorted, by whom, and for what purpose. Visitor logs serve as a documentation tool to track and record such movements within a facility.

Considering the way that CompTIA thinks, I would have to go with D.

In reality, you would just use all of these except locks, but comptia says no.

Come on now, visitor log acts as a proof/contract and you become responsible for whatever the company put under their policies. I used to work at the port and i had to take a training and get certified from the port authority just to be able to escort visitors.

How are you supposed to prove your station with visitor logs? The only way to prove you're responsible with escorting is showing you badge (a policeman is accountable if he shows his badge)

Making it harder than it is think of it this way, i work here this person doesnt, i log them in so they know im the reason why they are here. Simple. Every other answer would require a investigation and lack of informaiton.

None of the above lol

took the exam recently, this was on the test

Visitor logs can be falsified, and badges can be cloned or stolen and used. Unless cameras are turned off or footage deleted, however, this is the most reliable evidence. Recent real life scenario: Tina Peters in CO who falsely used Gerald Wood's badge and said he logged in when in reality it was RCVA founder Conan Hayes. She had turned off the cameras though but they were able to figure it out. Also lesson to learn is that no system is 100% protection especially with insider threats.

I was going with C) Cameras but then I remembered when I used to work IT at the airport we had a checkpoint where they noted down the name/company of the guest/visitor and the person escorting them. I guess it makes sense b/c there may not be cameras everywhere and you're held accountable by writing your name down as the escort.
