Integrity
Integrity is apparently the atomic accessible aegis principle. Candor is authentic as the ability
of the abstracts (or asset) to not be adapted after detection.
An archetype of candor activated to networking is a about-face configuration: No one can modify
the agreement except with the able accreditation (operators’ usernames and passwords);
moreover, alike a modification by the accustomed cadre leaves a aisle through a syslog
message.
NOTE This archetype is not absolutely foolproof because an antagonist can bead a syslog message
on purpose.
The aforementioned techniques (protective alembic or cryptographic protection) accommodate integrity.
Therefore, cryptography generally adds to a system’s acquaintance and candor properties.
Web defacing, home tagging, and about-face an Ethernet frame’s agreeable are attacks against
integrity (also alleged alteration).
Although candor is not able-bodied known, best sectors acquisition it important. For example, a bank
does not appetite all its coffer accounts altered, and a university does not appetite students’ grade
results altered, and so on.
