CIA security triad stands for

Question:
What does the CIA security triad stand for?

1. Congeniality, Integrity, Access
2. Confidence, Insurance, Action
3. Central Intelligence Agency
4. Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability

Answer:
D - is the correct answer. Confidentiality is the need to enforce access - who can see this, and who shouldn’t? Integrity refers to data integrity here. We need security controls that protect data from being changed or deleted. Availability refers to data being consistently, reliably available to those authorized.
