Aisha should confront Gilbert with the evidence against him to give him the chance to explain his behavior or to confess. Initiating disciplinary proceedings or fixing security procedures may be necessary after the issue is resolved, but the first step should be to address the suspected unethical behavior directly with the individual involved. Looking for conditions that led to his behavior is also a valid action, but it should be done in parallel with confronting Gilbert.
