I’m a bit confused because accuracy seems related, but I guess that falls under integrity as well?

I feel like this question is similar to one we practiced where we talked about data breaches. Integrity was the key point there too.

I’m not entirely sure, but I remember something about availability being about access, not modification.

I think if data has been modified, it definitely relates to integrity, right? That’s what we discussed in class.

Integrity is the answer here. Modifying the data means the information is no longer accurate or trustworthy, which is a breach of the integrity principle.

Okay, I think I got this. If the data has been changed, then the integrity of the information has been compromised. Gotta remember that for the exam.

Haha, easy one! Integrity all the way. You can't have secure information if someone's been playing with the data, can you?

The answer has to be Integrity. I mean, if the data gets tampered with, how can you trust it anymore? Duh!
