Solution

The example of a security incident from the options provided is: "An unauthorized user successfully changes the password of an account that does not belong to them."

This is a security incident because it involves unauthorized access to an account, which could potentially lead to data theft, data loss, or other forms of cybercrime. The other options do not represent security incidents because they either involve authorized actions or system errors, not malicious activities.
