The manager has a need to secure physical documents every night, since the company began enforcing
the clean desk policy. The BEST solution would include: (Select TWO).

A.
Fire- or water-proof safe.

B.
Department door locks.

C.
Proximity card.

D.
24-hour security guard.

E.
Locking cabinets and drawers.

Explanation:
Using a safe and locking cabinets to protect backup media, documentation, and any other physical
artifacts that could do harm if they fell into the wrong hands would form part of keeping employees desks
clean as in a clean desk policy.
Incorrect Answers:
B: Door lock will keep intruders out of the rooms and buildings. It does not keep the desk clean.
C: Proximity cards are in essence any card or ID that would be used with a card reader that will grant
legitimate users access to an area, room or building – it does not interfere with the clean desk policy.
D: Security guards are used to keep intruders out.
