ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity — Question 21

In physical to logical asset protections, what threat can be directed against the network?

Answer options

• A. Elevation of privileges
• B. Flood the switch
• C. All of these
• D. Crack the password

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because flooding the switch is a specific network attack that can disrupt services by overwhelming the switch with traffic. Options A and D refer to threats that target user access and security but do not specifically address network-level threats. Option C is incorrect as it implies all listed threats are network-related, which is not the case.
