Answer: D
An applet is a program downloaded from a web server to the
client, usually through a web browser that provides
functionality for database access, interactive web pages and
communications with other users. Applets opening connections
from the client machine to other machines on the network and
damaging those machines as a denial-of-service attack pose
the greatest threat to an organization and could disrupt
business continuity. A program that deposits a virus on a
client machine is referred to as a malicious attack
(specifically meant to cause harm to a client machine), but
may not necessarily result in a disruption of service.
Applets recording keystrokes and, therefore, passwords and
downloaded code that reads files on a client's hard drive
relate more to organizational privacy issues, and although
significant, are less likely to cause a significant
disruption of service.
