Consider the following statement and choose the option that follows.
Statements:
I. Banks have increased staff training on cyber security.
II. There has been a surge in cyber attacks.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. II is the cause and I is the effect.
Statement I: Banks have increased staff training on cyber security → This is a preventive action taken in response.
Statement II: There has been a surge in cyber attacks → This indicates a problem or trigger situation.
Logically, when cyber attacks increase, banks respond by strengthening security through training.
So, increase in cyber attacks (cause) → increased training (effect).
