Haha, yeah, plenum? Really? I was about to say, 'What, are we controlling the airflow or something?' But I guess they had to throw in a red herring.

Okay, let's break this down. Plenum? That's for HVAC, not access control. I'm eliminating that one right off the bat.

You know, I was about to agree with the electromechanical lock, but then I remembered that they can be bypassed with the right tools. Maybe the biometric lock is the way to go after all.

Hold on, are we sure the identification card is secure enough? I mean, anyone can swipe a card, right? I think the electromechanical lock is a more robust solution.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Biometrics can be a bit finicky, and you still need a way to manage access rights. I'm leaning more towards the identification card option.

Whoa, talk about a tricky question! I'd say the biometric lock is the way to go. It combines physical and logical access control in one neat package.
