Question


Which of the following is not a threat to computers?

A.

SQL Injection

B.

Burn

C.

DOS Attack

D.

Phishing

E.

Power Surge

Correct option is B

Burn is not a computer security threat. It refers to physical damage, such as overheating or hardware failure, not a cyberattack or software vulnerability. The other options are all forms of cyber threats that can compromise a computer’s security or functionality.
Important Key Points:
1. SQL Injection is a type of attack that targets databases by injecting malicious SQL queries.
2. DOS (Denial of Service) Attack is a method of overwhelming a system with traffic to make it unavailable to users.
3. Phishing involves tricking users into revealing sensitive information such as passwords or credit card details.
Knowledge Booster:
· Power Surge can damage hardware but is not classified as a cyber threat. It can result from electrical issues but does not involve malicious intent.
· SQL Injection exploits vulnerabilities in applications that use SQL databases.
· DOS Attack disrupts service by overloading a network or server.
· Phishing uses deceptive emails or websites to obtain sensitive information.
