I'm leaning towards Preventive approach as well. Locking the laptop and using biometric authentication are both proactive measures to prevent unauthorized access.

Haha, I bet Bob's feeling pretty frustrated right now. He should have known better than to try and access a locked laptop. Serves him right!

I'm not so sure. Couldn't this also be considered a Proactive approach? Alice seems to have taken steps to anticipate potential threats to her confidential files.
