Availability means that the information or system is ready and<br \/>working when people need it, like being able to log into your email or access files at work<br \/>without constant outages<br \/>Two other ideas that often get mixed up are Authentication and Authorization. Authentication is<br \/>basically proving you are who you say you are\u2014like typing in a password, using Face ID, or<br \/>entering a code texted to your phone. Authorization comes after that step; it\u2019s about what you\u2019re<br \/>allowed to do once you\u2019re in. For example, when you log into a bank app, entering your<br \/>password is authentication. But being able to transfer money or just view your balance depends<br \/>on your authorization (Stallings, 2017). Put together, the CIA Triad explains what needs<br \/>protecting, while authentication and authorization explain who gets in and what they can do once<br \/>they\u2019re there, and how they keep your information safe and compromise free from attackers.<br \/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CIA TRIAD WRITE UPAntoine SmithThe CIA Triad is a simple way to understand what makes information secure.
