Which of the following would be considered a business risk?

A. Former employees

B. Part-time and temporary personnel

C. Loss of competitive edge

D. Hackers

Answer Posted / guest

Answer: C

Many organizations, especially service firms such as banks,
savings and loans and investment firms, need credibility and
public trust to maintain a competitive edge. A security
violation can severely damage this credibility, resulting in
the loss of business and prestige. Loss of credibility is a
risk. The other choices are threats. Former employees, who
left on unfavorable terms, are potential logical or physical
access violators. Part-time and temporary personnel often
have a great deal of physical access and may well be
competent in computing. Hackers are typically attempting to
test the limits of access restrictions to prove their
ability to overcome the obstacles. Although they usually do
not access a computer with the intent of destruction, this
is quite often the result.
