Secure Software Concepts

Which of the following statements concerning the integrity concept in information security management are true? Each correct answer represents a complete solution.

Choose three
  • A It ensures that unauthorized modifications are not made to data by authorized personnel or processes.
  • B It determines the actions and behaviors of a single individual within a system
  • C It ensures that internal information is consistent among all subentities and also consistent with the real-world, external situation.
  • D It ensures that modifications are not made to data by unauthorized personnel or processes.
Explanation

Integrity protects information from improper or unauthorized alteration and requires data to remain accurate and consistent. It therefore prevents unauthorized modifications by both authorized personnel or processes acting outside their permission and unauthorized personnel or processes, and it includes consistency within information and with the real-world situation represented. Attribution of an individual’s actions is accountability rather than integrity.
