CompTIA ITF+ (FC0-U61) — Question 3

Which of the following security concerns is a threat to confidentiality?

Answer options

• A. Replay attack
• B. Denial of service
• C. Service outage
• D. Dumpster diving

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Dumpster diving is a method used to retrieve confidential information by searching through discarded materials, making it a direct threat to confidentiality. In contrast, a replay attack, denial of service, and service outage primarily affect availability and integrity rather than directly compromising confidential information.
