Suggested Answer:ABD🗳️
Threat is an act of coercion wherein an act is proposed to elicit a negative response. Threats are real, while the vulnerabilities are a possibility. They can result in risks from external sources, and can become imminent by time or can diminish. Incorrect Answers: C, E: These two are true for vulnerability, but not threat. Unlike the threat, vulnerabilities are possibility and can result in risks from internal sources. They will arise and stay in place until they are properly dealt.
A. They can become more imminent as time goes by, or it can diminish
Threats can evolve over time, becoming more or less likely to occur. For instance, a new software vulnerability may be discovered, increasing the likelihood of a cyberattack. Conversely, an organization's security measures may be improved, reducing the threat's immediacy.
B. They can result in risks from external sources
Threats often originate from external factors beyond an organization's direct control. These could include natural disasters, economic downturns, or competitors' actions. Internal threats, such as human error or equipment malfunctions, can also arise.
C. They are possibilities
Threats represent potential events that could negatively impact an organization's objectives. They are not certain to occur, but the possibility exists. Effective risk management involves identifying, assessing, and addressing potential threats to minimize their impact on the organization.
