A is correct, but B can also disrupt services indirectly.

Not sure about A, sounds too straightforward.

Wait, is it really that simple?

I agree, A is the right answer!

I recall a question about different types of attacks, and DoS was definitely mentioned as one that prevents access. So, A seems like the best choice.
ST

I was leaning towards A as well, but I wonder if there are other types of attacks that could also fit this definition.
SO

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about DoS attacks from our practice quizzes. They seem to fit the description.
GE

I think the answer might be A, Denial of Service attack, because it specifically aims to disrupt access for legitimate users.
TE

I'm pretty sure the answer is C - graduated guidance. That's the procedure used to fade physical prompts, right?
TW

Wait, I'm a bit confused. Does a self-join really require the EXISTS or NOT EXISTS operator in the join condition? I'll have to double-check that.
BE

The answer is so obvious, it's almost criminal. If you don't pick DoS, you might as well just *deny* yourself a passing grade on this exam.
BO
Bobbye 1 year ago
I was tempted to go with the malicious code or insider threat, but that's more about compromise than just plain ol' denial of service. DoS is the way to go, folks!
IZ

Unauthorized access is a tricky one, but it's not specifically about disrupting service. Gotta be the DoS attack option.

DoS attacks are definitely a major concern for keeping systems up and running smoothly.

Yeah, DoS attacks can really cause chaos for users trying to access systems.
PO

Definitely a sneaky way to disrupt service
SH

I heard they flood the system with traffic to overwhelm it

DoS attack
CH
Cheryl 1 year ago
Hmm, I was thinking about fraud and theft, but that's not really about preventing access, is it? Gotta go with DoS on this one.
BA
Barbra 1 year ago
A Denial of Service (DoS) attack is the obvious choice here. It's all about disrupting service and availability to legitimate users.
ME
Melda 1 year ago
↳ replying to Barbra
D) Malicious code or insider threat attack
JA

↳ replying to Barbra
That's right, a DoS attack is all about disrupting service to legitimate users.
BR

↳ replying to Barbra
A) Denial of service (DoS) attack
KI
Kimi 2 years ago
I agree, DoS attacks are designed to disrupt normal operations.
WI
Wilburn 2 years ago
I think it's A too, because it makes the system unavailable to users.

A) Denial of service (DoS) attack
