The answer is so obvious, it's almost criminal. If you don't pick DoS, you might as well just *deny* yourself a passing grade on this exam.

I was tempted to go with the malicious code or insider threat, but that's more about compromise than just plain ol' denial of service. DoS is the way to go, folks!

Unauthorized access is a tricky one, but it's not specifically about disrupting service. Gotta be the DoS attack option.

Hmm, I was thinking about fraud and theft, but that's not really about preventing access, is it? Gotta go with DoS on this one.
