Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design provides a different approach than a target hardening approach. Which of the following is an example of target hardening?

A.
Hedges and planters around a facility should not be higher than 2.5 feet tall, so they cannot be used to gain access to a window

B.
Implementing locks and alarms to delay and detect intrusions

C.
Street furnishings (benches and tables) encourage people to sit and watch what is going on around them, which discourages criminal activity

D.
CCTV cameras are mounted in full view, so criminals know their activities will be captured

Explanation:
CPTED provides guidelines on items some of us might not consider. For
example, hedges and planters around a facility should not be higher than 2.5 feet
tall, so they cannot be used to gain access to a window. A data center should be
located at the center of a facility, so the facility’s walls will absorb any damages
from external forces, instead of the data center. Street furnishings (benches and
tables) encourage people to sit and watch what is going on around them, which
discourages criminal activity. A corporation’s landscape should not include wooded
areas or other places where intruders can hide. Ensure that CCTV cameras are mounted
in full view, so criminals know their activities will be captured, and other people
know the environment is well monitored and thus safer. CPTED and target hardening
are two different approaches. Target hardening focuses on denying access through
physical and artificial barriers (alarms, locks, fences, and so on).
