Question:

Frank is responsible for cybersecurity at a small university. There are many computer labs that are open for students to use. These labs are monitored only by a student worker, who may or may not be very attentive. Frank is worried about the theft of computers. What would be the best way for him to alleviate this risk?

A Cable locks.
explanation

 Attaching cable locks to the computers and locking them to the table will make it more difficult for someone to steal a computer. Full-disk encryption (FDE) won’t stop someone from stealing the computer, nor will strong passwords. A sign-in sheet is a good idea and may deter some thefts, but it is not the best approach to stopping theft offered in this scenario.
