Do not establish more than ______ ECPs for each restricted area.

• A. One
• B. Two
• C. Three
• D. Four

Answer: (A)

Centralized access control is the idea here: for each restricted area, you want a single Entry Control Point where every entry is screened, credentials checked, and access logged. Having one point makes enforcement clear, easy to supervise, and straightforward to audit. If more than one ECP existed, procedures would have to be duplicated and perfectly coordinated across all points, which invites gaps, confusion about who is in charge, and potential bypass opportunities. Keeping to one ECP per restricted area keeps the control tight and reliable.
