Using office computers for personal e-mails

Banging on the keyboard, when the computer is running slow

Leaving laptop computers unattended in public spaces

Drinking water or coffee while working on computers

Explanation / Answer

Although all the above options pose some sort of risk but the top concern should be option C.

Leaving computers unattended in public space is the top security concern. There might be lots of sensitive data which is captured in the laptop and when they are left unattended there are chances that the laptop might be stolen and the sensitive information is hacked. Although using office computers for personal mail is also a threat for security but atleast the messages might be readable since office network has been used but once data from laptops are hacked , damage is already done.
