I don't know about you, but I'd rather be facing a SQL injection than a good old-fashioned denial-of-service. At least with SQL injection, you can try to patch the vulnerabilities. With a DoS, you just gotta hold on tight and pray the network doesn't crash!

I'm with the others on this one. B. Denial-of-service is the only answer that makes sense given the description. Time to dust off those firewall rules!

Hmm, this one's a no-brainer. Flooding the network to prevent authorized users from accessing the system? Gotta be a denial-of-service attack, folks.

Definitely B. Flooding the network with traffic to consume all resources - that's a textbook denial-of-service attack, no doubt about it.
