Although on the surface, choosing physical controls may seem common sense and subjective, there are likely options and considerations you're unaware of. Furthermore, SSCP exam candidates must have a broad knowledge of these controls to pass the exam.
Use this course to explore, in detail, the many categories and types of physical security controls, including barriers, such as gate types; surveillance, such as camera types; types of locks and sensors; secure areas, such as Faraday cages; and environmental controls, such as air gaps.
Upon course completion, you'll be able to customize your physical security methods to suit your organization. This course covers subtopic 1.8 from Domain 1: Security Operations and Administration of the (ISC)² Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) 2021 CBK.
