    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.
