Episode 106: Physical Security — Locks, Guards, Surveillance

from Certified - The CompTIA A+ Audio Course Hosted by Dr. Jason Edwards

Protecting physical assets is the first line of defense in cybersecurity, and this episode explores the methods used to safeguard devices and facilities. We begin with door locks, cable locks, and biometric scanners—tools used to restrict access to equipment and data. Then we move into mantraps and security guards, which provide controlled entry to secure zones and deter unauthorized personnel. We also cover surveillance tools such as security cameras and badge systems, including how they are configured and monitored. These physical measures are often paired with logical controls, and CompTIA may test your ability to apply the appropriate solution based on risk and location. Knowing how to implement both basic and advanced physical security measures is essential for comprehensive IT protection. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
