Unpatched kiosk PCs in a city hall lobby are treated as an IT preference issue. What risk type should leadership recognize?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Unpatched lobby kiosks are not a taste debate—they are open doors on the network. That is technology risk sitting in plain sight.
Full Explanation
Technology risks stem from systems, devices, software, and technical failures that can compromise confidentiality, integrity, availability, or service delivery. Unpatched public kiosks present exploitable attack surface and operational disruption potential. Treating patching as optional preference understates exposure. Controls should include patching, hardening, and monitoring appropriate to public devices.
