The correct answer is C) barest minimum.
In a highly sensitive industrial undertaking, a key principle of physical security is to minimize potential points of entry and exit. Fewer gates make it easier to control, monitor, and screen people and vehicles entering and leaving the premises, thereby enhancing overall security and reducing vulnerabilities. While the number must be sufficient for operational needs (emergency exits, logistics), it should be the absolute minimum necessary to maintain strict control.
