This is concerned with protecting data from accidental or intentional disclosure to unauthorized persons or from unauthorized modification or destruction. These controls are implemented through operating systems, security access control programs, data communication products, and backup and recovery procedure and application programs. There controls address the following issues:
- Confidentiality of data
- Access control
- Critical nature of data
- Integrity of data
They must reflect the following two basic principles:
- Minimal privilege i.e. only the information the user needs to carry out an assigned task should be made available to him or her
- Minimal exposure i.e. once a user gains access to sensitive information he or she has the responsibility of protecting it by making sure only people whose duty require it obtain knowledge of this information while it is processed, stored or in transit.
Data integrity is the condition that exists as long as accidental or intentional destruction, alteration or loss of data does not occur. It is the preservation of data or for its intended use.
