Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Change the risk rating scale from 1-5 to 1-10.
Why it's wrong here
Changing scales affects the data, not the visibility of a category.
- ✗
Delete all non-cybersecurity risks from the system.
Why it's wrong here
Data loss is unacceptable and not a configuration solution.
- ✓
Apply a 'Category Filter' or 'Saved View' to the dashboard widget.
Why this is correct
Filtering by attribute is the standard way to narrow reporting views.
- ✗
Create a new database user for the executive.
Why it's wrong here
User permissions do not change the visualization scope.
