Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Target hardening refers to implementing physical measures to make a target less vulnerable to victimization. Using bars on windows or hiring security guards are examples of target hardening measures that can deter potential offenders and minimize the risk of crime. Implementing a connection with police (option B) can be helpful but it is not a physical measure of target hardening. Posting signs about penalties (option C) can also be helpful but may not necessarily deter determined offenders. Donating money to a social program (option D) is not an example of target hardening.
