B . 3 to 4 feet isn't much of a barrier and fits what the exam usually wants for 'casual deterrence'-just enough to signal property lines but easy to climb. D is tempting but that's more for physical security against determined intruders. Let me know if you see it differently.
Option B, nice clear-cut question, matches what I've seen on similar prep exams.
B here too, 3 to 4 feet sounds right for casual trespassers, not sure if it varies by country though.
I don't think it's D. B is correct because fences 3 to 4 feet high mainly act as a psychological barrier, just enough to stop casual trespassers but not a real physical obstacle. Pretty sure about this, but open if anyone disagrees.
Probably B here. Fence heights of 3 to 4 feet are mainly a psychological barrier, just enough to discourage someone wandering onto a property. D trips up people since it's more for preventing deliberate intrusion. If the question asked about stopping determined attackers, D would make sense, but for just casual trespassers B fits what CISSP usually expects.
Hard to say, this is same as a common exam questions, in some exam reports. B
Yeah, this one lines up with B. 3 to 4 feet is just for casual deterrence, like marking a property line. Not totally sure if different regions use slightly different standards though.
Its D for me. Fences that are 6 to 7 feet high seem more likely to deter casual trespassers since they're harder to climb-3 or 4 feet just feels too low and easy to get over. I think there's a trap here because sometimes standards say higher fences provide better deterrence, especially if there’s no other physical barrier. Maybe I’m missing something though, let me know if you disagree.
Official guide mentions this height for casual deterrence, so worth reviewing that and any physical security tables in study materials.
Had something like this in a mock exam. B is the usual standard for fences that just mark boundaries and keep out people who aren't serious about getting in. Anything higher starts acting as an actual barrier. Pretty sure it's B.
Be respectful. No spam.
