I’m a bit confused. I thought authenticity was also important, but I guess it’s more about verifying identities rather than protecting data itself?

This reminds me of a practice question where we discussed the importance of keeping data private. I feel like confidentiality is definitely the right answer here.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Could it also be about availability, since the hacker gained access to the server? Or is that not quite right? I'll have to review my notes on the security principles.

Confidentiality, for sure. If the hacker can read the credit card info, that's a big no-no.
