A financial services firm deploys an AI-driven platform for real-time analytics. They observe periods of high-volume interference targeting the platform’s most resource-intensive processes, causing it to hang repeatedly. Which action explains how the adversary is causing these interruptions?
Acquiring sensitive keys to capture model output data
Sending a flood of queries to exhaust computation power
Altering training inputs to undermine prediction accuracy
Modifying runtime parameters to produce inaccurate outcomes
Sending large amounts of requests that exhaust resources prevents the AI platform from completing legitimate operations. This is different from tampering with data sets or cryptographic material, which would undermine the model's accuracy or security posture but not necessarily disrupt performance in this manner. Adjusting configurations promotes incorrect outputs instead of shutting down the environment.

Why don't runtime parameter modifications cause the same interruptions as a query flood?
