A student gave everyone edit permission while sharing a project in cloud storage. What is the correct risk analysis?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Content can be changed unintentionally
Edit permission allows a user to change the contents, and sometimes the structure, of a shared file. If everyone receives it, an accidental or unauthorised edit can overwrite information or reduce its reliability. View-only access would reduce this risk. The permission does not automatically improve security or send the file to Recycle Bin.
