Q: 10
A tech company rapidly expanded its operations over the past few years. Its information system,
consisting of servers, databases, and communication tools, is a critical part of its daily operations.
However, due to rapid growth and increased data flow, the company is now facing a saturation of its
information system. This saturation has led to slower response times, increased downtime, and
difficulty in managing the overwhelming volume of dat
a. In which category does this threat fall into?

Pretty sure it's B. The issue is about system overload due to growth, which hits on technical limitations, not really hardware or total function compromise. Always felt ISO sees this as a technical failure but correct me if I missed something.
B-not really infrastructure failure since it's more about the system's tech limits than hardware. Makes sense based on ISO language.
Yeah this lines up with B. Technical failures here due to the system not handling the growth.
Official guide or some scenario-based practice test would probably settle if this type of slowdown is always "technical failure"?
B makes sense because the slowdown and outages relate to system capacity, which falls under technical failures. Not really seeing infrastructure faults here. I think B is the right pick but open to other takes.
Option A Infrastructure failures
Probably B, but does the question mean the most immediate threat or is it asking for the root cause? If they want the risk category based on operational impact, answer might change.
Be respectful. No spam.
