    Question

    In each question below is given a statement followed

    by two assumptions numbered I and II. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement. Statement: "Due to increasing cases of data theft, companies are advised to train all employees in basic cybersecurity practices." Assumptions: I. Employees currently lack adequate awareness of cybersecurity practices. II. Training employees will help reduce data theft incidents.
    A Only assumption I is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only assumption II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Either I or II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both I and II are implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The statement advises companies to train all employees, which can only make sense if: Assumption I: Employees lack adequate awareness now — otherwise training would not be needed.
    → Implicit. Assumption II: The suggested action (training) is expected to reduce data theft incidents — otherwise the advice has no purpose.
    → Implicit. Hence, both assumptions are implicit.
