What is cybersecurity?

The use of technology and processes to prevent and respond to attacks that may occur on devices, networks, information infrastructure, systems, or programs to prevent unauthorized access and reduce damage.

What is the CIA Triad?

The CIA Triad is a fundamental concept in cybersecurity that emphasizes three core principles: Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability.

What is Confidentiality in the CIA Triad?

Confidentiality ensures that information is protected from unauthorized access. It prevents sensitive data from falling into the wrong hands.

What is Integrity in the CIA Triad?

Integrity ensures that data is accurate and complete. It prevents unauthorized modifications or alterations to data.
