Full set: 90 questions
Answer options
A: Greater likelihood of bias or inaccuracy in chatbot responses
B: Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive records via insecure external connections Correct answer
C: Customer dissatisfaction from operational delays
D: Insufficient training datasets due to outdated or limited sample coverage
Correct Answer:
B. Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive records via insecure external connections
Explanation

API integration with external AI services creates data transmission pathways between the organization and external systems. Customer support contexts involve sensitive personal data— account information, contact details, inquiry content—that may be transmitted through these API connections. Why B is Correct: The ISACA AAIR security and privacy guidance identifies unauthorized disclosure of sensitive data through insecure API connections as the greatest risk in multi-service AI integration. APIs can be vulnerable to interception, inadequate authentication, or misconfiguration. In a customer support context, exposure of personal data via API vulnerabilities creates privacy violations, regulatory liability, and reputational harm—all more severe than the other listed concerns. Why A is Wrong: Bias and inaccuracy in chatbot responses are real quality risks but represent service quality issues rather than security or privacy breaches. Inaccurate responses are visible and correctable; data breaches may go undetected. Why C is Wrong: Customer dissatisfaction from operational delays is a service quality and business risk. It is a manageable consequence of performance issues rather than the greatest risk from API- based AI integration. Why D is Wrong: Insufficient training datasets affect model quality but are a development concern addressed during the model selection phase. They do not represent the primary operational risk of deploying multi-service API integrations in production.
